About this publication

State Money Guide

Understand state-specific search procedures, ownership questions, and official claim instructions—with sources you can check.

Our purpose

Official pathways. State by state. We organize information so you can ask informed questions and consult the relevant official authority. We do not decide ownership, approve claims, or guarantee payment. We are not a government agency.
