California unclaimed property auction
Beverly Hills is the site for the annual auction of valuable unclaimed property.
You may or may not be aware of unclaimed property auctions. The state receives unclaimed property from banks and businesses which it documents and holds onto. Attempts are made to find the rightful owners, but sometimes this is not achieved. In such cases there does come a time when that property will be sold at auction.
The auction is to be held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Beverly Hills, 1150 South Beverly Drive. The two-day event is on May 25 and 26 at 9 a.m. Preview times are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on May 23 and 24.
Jewelry and other items are grouped into 2,105 lots. Amongst these lots you will find some estate pieces such as platinum and diamond rings, a diamond sapphire ring, and a gold ring with alexandrite as well as some timepieces of exquisite value.
Unclaimed property can be found by going to CashUnclaimed.com. Here, with one entry of your name, you will be able to search all state and federal databases looking for unclaimed money.
