18-wheeler overturns, spills thousands of dimes

  • Early Tuesday morning, an 18-wheeler overturned on the southbound lanes of the highway close to Farm Road 1655 in Alvord, Texas, causing a large quantity of loose dimes to spill across the road.
  • The crash occurred after the driver veered off the road and overcorrected, causing the truck to roll onto its side, though the exact cause remains unknown.
  • The truck was hauling millions of dimes valued at about $800,000, scattered on the roadway, prompting crews to hand-pick the coins and close the highway for hours.
  • Texas Department of Public Safety confirmed both the driver and a passenger sustained non-life-threatening injuries and were taken to a hospital, and traffic backups developed during the closure.
  • Cleanup efforts continue without a clear timeline for reopening the highway, and authorities expect to provide additional information as it becomes available.
