Radioactive dollars found at Russian-Estonian border

Russian customs officers detained 2000 radioactive USD the other day. The level of radiation was 300 times bigger than the normal one. A man with the dangerous money was detained when he was undergoing the radiation check-up.

When he saw the dosimeter’s reading he took off his jacket and threw it away in panic. The money was confiscated to make an examination. Customs officials admit that it could be counterfeit money.
