Sorry I'm posting a lot today but I HAVE to share this with y'all.

So recently my great grand father passed He had a love for coins just as I have now. He was a really funny guy. So he wanted to give me his coins so he made me a scavenger hunt!

So he gave me clues around the house to find the coins. and once I found the last clue it wrote
"You feel good when you hit a home run just as if you've found a Chache of coins" So I went into a shed where he had his baseball memorabilia. And there behind the baseball bats was a plastic box that looked like this

My-Goodness

The Things inside include full books of coins comeriative coins of all types silver nickles 22karot gold coins 1961 proof ERROR set [the half dollar is 2,900] cased coins old wheat and Indian head pennies 1st strike 2014 silver PANDA!
