“The final treasures of a quiet man who collected a fortune in gold coins will be auctioned off Tuesday in Nevada. The body of Walter Samaszko Jr. was found in his Carson City home in June 2012. A cleaning crew hired to tidy his modest, ranch style home where he had lived for four decades came upon a stunning discovery — boxes and boxes full of gold coins and bullion collected over an unassuming lifetime. It was enough to fill two wheelbarrows. The fortune, after taxes, will go to Samaszko’s only surviving cousin, Arlene Magdanz of San Rafael, Calif. A substitute teacher, Magdanz has shunned media attention and not spoken publicly about her new-found riches.”
