State Treasury's Unclaimed Property Auction

Valentine's Day is just a couple of weeks away, and this year the State Treasury Department says it can help you find a great gift for your significant other and save you some money.

Every April 15, the Treasury receives millions of dollars in unclaimed property including jewelry, collectible coins and medals.

This latest auction comes right in time for Valentine's Day.
