O’Hairs Left Behind $100,000 in Coins

When atheist leader Madalyn Murray O’Hair, her son and daughter disappeared, they left behind almost $100,000 in gold coins, the San Antonio Express-News has reported. The existence of the coins was made public when the Internal Revenue Service published a legal notice stating it had seized Canadian Maple Leaf coins being held by San Antonio rare coin dealer Cory Ticknor. The coins were being held for Jon Murray, O’Hair’s son, and add another puzzle to the question of what happened to the trio. A two-year global search for Murray and the O’Hairs has proved fruitless. Theories about their fate range from kidnapping, robbery and triple homicide to the execution of a long-planned getaway.
