<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fredm2654`, post: 3790226, member: 107895&quot;]ronnie58 - I have both a similar story and relevant to his thread as well. In 1978 when I got married we lived in a condo across from an elderly retired couple. We would chat with them and at one time he gave me a set of 15&quot; tires practically new. After knowing them for 8 months they were ready to pick up and move to Fla so he told me &#039;my storage cage downstairs is unlocked go get whatever you want before management does&#039;. There was an old cheap desk with its drawers swollen shut from years of basement dwelling. Obviously because of this they never scoured the contents. Crowbar in hand, I made my way in. First in the find - a set of 4 1928 worlds fair international silver plated commemorative spoons. After pushing around many other trinkets I found coins - 1 being a decent 1879 shield nickel - the other an 1880 with that &#039;island&#039; mentioned above. Still have it - but honestly have struggled on how to reliably place this into someone&#039;s hands and trust I will get that same coin back - so to date it is still ungraded. </p><p><br /></p><p>This may be the motivation I need to at least take some good pics and post them. lol.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
