<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rzage, post: 448640, member: 14070&quot;]Like I said they had a tavern and a corner food store , I was told my grandfather whom I never met paid cash for a new car during the depression , so they were doing pretty well till he died , my mother told me that they were giving out&nbsp; credit and when he died people started to avoid my grandmother so they didn&#039;t have to pay her , I talked to my mom who&#039;s still alive at 91 and she said my grandparents on her side who owned the stores didn&#039;t get here to the late 1890s , and she thinks most of the gold coins came in around the depression , and that she herself doesn&#039;t remember taking in any gold during the time she worked there , I&#039;ve heard my one uncle got all the gold coins kinda stole them when my grandma died , I just remember showing him some of my coin and he said he liked his better , and that he had an eagle and California fractionals , so who knows how many he had or when he got them even if they were from the store , I guess I could of let my imagination run away with me when I was younger , as I always thought they should of been spread out among all the brothers and sisters , and then eventually to me and my cousins , all wishfull thinking , I do have pictures of the tavern and store that I&#039;ll post if I get a scanner . I look at those pictures and just imagined the different coins they must have took in .<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie9" alt=":eek:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />:hail:</p><p>rzage<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>rzage[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
