<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 1114229, member: 15199&quot;]The bank usually&nbsp; seals the box until they received legal determination of the executor of a will or probate issue. A feasible inheritor ( such as a spouse or co-signer on the box) can petition to have it opened if no will can be found outside of it. This is done with court or appointed officer of the court standing there. In most states being a co-signer on the box does not give you the right to open it if the other so-signer dies, until the above is determined. At least this was my experience in Calif. If there is no statement in the will concerning the contents of the box, and no itemization of who owned what in the box It can take a while. Generally this is no problem, but if there were 2 of you running a coin business, and a lot of inventory in a shared box, that could be a problem. I am not a lawyer, so check the laws in your area. IMO.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
