Here&#039;s a good metal detecting story you don&#039;t want to miss: We found this old bank in an abandoned ghost town in Texas. It was left in the back of a desk drawer. Our metal detector was saying there was something in the drawer, so we had to pull the drawer all the way out, and then we saw it crammed in its hiding place for all these decades. THERE WERE MANY OLD FORT KNOX SAFES ALL WITH COINS IN THEM!! We opened one of the safes, and it contained 77 silver dimes, all from 1945 and earlier, with a few being barbers and one seated liberty from 1877. We are auctioning off the rest of the banks unopened and undescribed. They are all heavy with coins, as we can tell that by the way they jingle when moved around. There is no telling what your safe could contain. The safes are not included, we will just open up your FORT KNOX bank and pour the coins into a zip-lock bag and mail to you. We cannot tell what is inside, so it is sort of a bold risk on your part to bid. By weight, there are probably 50- 150 coins in each. People in the past have discovered old Indian Cents and other early Lincoln pennies. </p><p><br /></p><p>They were metal detecting a desk?</p><p>How many of these were jammed in the back of a drawer?
