The US has unveiled its first ATM that dispenses 24-carat gold bars and coins instead of cash in Boca Raton, Fla., the Daily Telegraph reports. Shoppers insert cash or credit cards and use a computer touchscreen to choose the weight and style of gold they want. The machine spits out the precious metal in a black box with a tamperproof seal. Each machine carries about 320 pieces of different-sized bars and coins, and prices are updated automatically every 10 minutes to reflect market fluctuations.
