Safe-deposit boxes
It can, but we haven't confirmed a dated state sale in 2025–26. The Treasurer auctioned the contents of hundreds of unclaimed safe-deposit boxes through Dakil Auctioneers on Dec 18, 2024 in Oklahoma City, with inspection the day before. Net proceeds are held for owners in the Unclaimed Property Division.

Not yet verified: No 2025 or 2026 sale has been announced that we could find. A December sale is only a guess based on 2024.
