There's gold in them thar hills!

This is some kind of find!! But I would hold onto them. Maybe not all, but keep them in a vault. With the way the economy is going at present, they may need this on hand.

I'm just curious as to who this originally belonged to, and what happened to them. Murder mystery?

Cool! I wonder if the owner hid them from FDR's confiscation and the heirs just forgot they were there. I'd be real surprised if the grubment doesn't ride in now and seize them.

  Great point. Just seems so weird that people had missed it before.

    It does! I guess there is enough ground movement that they worked their way up at an opportune moment.

  Who prizes finding a hot potato? Someone with a steak and no potato? I hadn't heard the pioneer in a cold bed either, lol.
