On 28 November 1941, Josip Broz Tito and Slobodan Penezić Krcun ordered for the silver to originally be transported to the Zlatibor villa of the Belgrade lawyer Aca Pavlović. There were 103 cases, 60 kg each, or 6 tons in total. It was masked as an ammunition. The treasure was then transported to the location of Borova Glava, where at the locality of Jokina Ćuprija part of it was buried, but the work wasn't finished due to the German offensive, so they tried to move the remaining part. As the transport by trucks wasn't an option due to the offensive, the Partisans were now carrying the crates on their backs. As they were chased by the Germans, the Partisans threw away the crates and the silver scattered over the meadows in the direction of the river Rzav, managing to keep only few bags of paper money.
