Funny! Relocate? Please remind me in another life. When I come richer than
now, destined to have this bath!

"If you've ever dreamed of owning a bank-vault mounded high with shiny
coins in which you can bathe like Scrooge McDuck, now is your chance. A
Swiss bank-vault filled with 8 million Swiss 5-cent pieces is up for
auction. The vault was made in 1913 for the Schweizer Volksbank. The coins
— 15 tons' worth — were used in a 2013 installation in which they were
dumped in a public square, with no security, as an exercise in public
trust. The coins and the safe are presently in Basel. You will have to
relocate them."
That's quite an unusual interactive artwork.
Share and enjoy,
