<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 366774, member: 13650&quot;]In this scenario, for your own sake and since it was not a stranger but a family member, I would have taken that suit case home and nobody would have ever known about it.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp; I regret to hear that she has passed.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;Had she survived for the next 10 years, the assisted living home would have required all of her assets to be liquidated to pay for the stay.&nbsp; The coins would have been gone.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;Very rarely is a will written without legal holes in it.&nbsp; To give anything away as a gift, in my state anyway, the asset has to be given away 7 years in advance BEFORE the person goes to assisted living.&nbsp; Otherwise, those coins, her house and every asset is immediately the property of the state.&nbsp; Nobody has any right to it. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; I know your scenario sounds like the right thing to do but besides all this, I would never trust anyone else to hang on to them and/ or keep them safe.&nbsp; That&#039;s just my first impression of this.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;Congrats on the find though.&nbsp; Keep us posted.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
