Notable items include:

  • "Bruce the Shark" chain (estimated value: $100,000-$200,000)
  • "Billy the Puppet" diamond pendant
  • Gold and Platinum plaques for albums including "Kika," "Gooba," Dummy Boy, and Day 69
  • Rainbow grill
  • Various chains and rings

The items were seized during an IRS raid on 6ix9ine's Florida home in April 2023 due to unpaid taxes over four years. The rapper confirmed the raid on Instagram, explaining he was unable to return to the USA from the Dominican Republic at the time. He also revealed that a video he posted showing a safe full of jewelry (not cash) prompted the raid.

Separately, 6ix9ine is currently pursuing legal action against LA Fitness, seeking over $1 million in damages following an attack at their Florida location in 2023. The lawsuit cites inadequate security measures as the basis for the claim.
