a huge hoard was found in a group of abandoned safety deposit boxes in a secret area of a bank that was for VIPs and then covered up during construction. somehow forgotten about since the '30s the contents were discovered today at a bank during renovations. the hoard includes half an original bag of 1895 s morgans, an OBW roll of'09 s VDB cents as well as many, many amazing coins dating as late as 1928. two of the 1895 s morgans were examined by an expert grader and assigned a grade of conservatively MS-65+.

read the rest and see a couple pics here. https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/...bikPnhYvZswO

Banknotes .. I totally agree!

seems every year just about this time ... a really good one is found!

Perhaps next year I will be so luck to uncover such a stash!

Beat me to it.


For what it is worth I have set an annual calendar reminder for April First. It simply says "Watch out!"

There was a span of years were I was especially gullible for some reason, probably had to do with me drying out at the time.

That was a good one. I didn't even think about the date, Until I saw the post

Usually our 2 sons and 2 daughters all call and say their families are expecting a new baby and their friends also. But We got used to that.
