Knox County Sheriff's On Lookout For Stolen Coins
Items stolen in a residential theft in Monmouth may show up in Galesburg according to Knox County Sheriff's Deputies.

The items, ranging from Silver dollars, fifty cent pieces, and two dollar bills were reported stolen last week from a Monmouth home.

The Knox County Sheriff's Department is working in conjunction with Warren County Sheriff's Deputies just in case the coins are used in Galesburg.

Knox County Sheriff's Deputies have warned Chamber businesses about their possible use and what to look for.

The Chamber of Commerce, in utilizing their recent effort to inform of fraud, sent out a notice to member businesses to keep an eye out.

Warren County Sheriff's Deputies were unable to disclose the amount of currency stolen from the residence, but according to the release it may be a large sum.

Authorities are asking anyone with knowledge of the situation to call their local Sheriff's Department.

The investigation is continuing.
