<p>[QUOTE="Mainebill, post: 4370257, member: 44004"]Very very few. I work on antique furniture and I can count on one hand the coins I’ve found in 25 years. 2 were in desks. A full red 1959 cent and a well worn 1910. The best I found was in a deal 25 years ago. A guy bought a huge safe at an auction. About 6 feet tall for the scrap in it. It had a beautiful fitted interior which I bought from him for $20. He said he gets to keep all the gold coins I find. Well I didn’t find any but did find a vf common date ihc. I think 1889. I gave it to him. Now the story of the document box a friend had from her husbands family house attic. She could tell there was stuff in the till it rattled around but it wouldn’t open. I practically had to take the box apart. But omg the stuff in it. Her husband’s great grandparents wedding rings. A solid gold watch. Tons of jewelry the latest coin was an au 1929 Lincoln and a nice 1882 $5. Which I bought it graded au 58 cac[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
