I was truly amazed to see for the first time what happens in New York’s Gold District as well as the EROC vault in East Rutherford, New York which is almost as big as seven football fields. And, it holds over $60 billion in cash. This video also shows how those bills gets made and contains some cool facts including how to recognize where a bill comes from, weight of a gold bar, and much more.
