One of the most important features that players will use in the world of Red Dead Redemption 2 is the collection of money in order to purchase necessary RDR2 items and weapons.

In order to perform the Gold Bar Glitch for RDR2 players will need to find a chest that contains a gold bar and then save their game before they collect the monetary item. The gold bar glitch can be used for any chest or box that contains the valuable item, but Redditor MagnusTS has posted a very efficient method for utilizing the gold bar glitch for Red Dead Redemption 2 to its fullest potential that involves the Sheriff's Office in a town that has seen better days near the Dakota River.

You can find the full post explaining the what many consider to be the best method for the RDR2 gold bar glitch that was posted to the official Red Dead Redemption 2 subreddit below. 

"Theres a waaay better exploit that works as well. Go to the old burned down town near the end of the Dakota River. In the Sheriffs office there is a lock box under a desk. Open the lockbox. Dont loot anything yet," said MagnusTS. "There should be a note and a gold bar. Stand a foot from the box and save the game. Go back to the previous menu and load the save you just made (without going back to the game). Head to the sheriffs office again. You should now be able to pick up endless gold bars. Inventory cap is 30. Go sell them and repeat the save steps.

EDIT: Like some pointed out. I failed to mention that autosave should be turned off. Quite crucial actually."
