<p>[QUOTE="Phoenix21, post: 1839985, member: 7424"]I really need to think of shorter titles. But for now! Just as the title says, I was able to crack open my safe with a paper clip and some pressure on the handle. I have been missing the key for roughly 4-5 years after we moved, so I was able to access some coins that I forgot about/had hidden away. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> Alas, no roll of 1916-D Mercs that my grandma put in there for me, but I am happy to see some old coins that are a blast from my past.
