Well, He Certainly Was Industrious

An Australian man has pleaded guilty to stealing $2 coins from the Royal Australian Mint. He smuggled the stolen coins out right under the eyes of security personnel by hiding them in his boots and lunch box. Although the man's attorney disputes the exact amount, prosecutors say he took $155,000 dollars worth of coins over a span of some ten months from April, 2005 through February, 2006.

Let's see. Assume he worked five days a week, that's around 200 working days, if he didn't take any days off. Holy smoke! He was taking something close to $775 per day. Almost 400 coins at a time.

How the heck did he walk?
