[QUOTE="clembo, post: 746911, member: 8033"]We sometimes run into people at work that have had a loved one pass away and found a few coins. We have also heard enough "hiding spots" to give them ideas as to where to look. Desk drawers are always a good place. People would tape paper money to the bottom of the drawer. Not good for the paper of course but some rare notes come out of the woodwork that way. People would also pin money to the inside of long curtains where they could not be seen through a window obviously. Had one guy that found boxes of proof sets in his father's crawl space. Again, NOT to good for the coins but a place most wouldn't look. Another lady found a lot of silver coins in the heating ducts of her home when her husband passed away. Just pulled of the vents and there they were. People look for small spaces that they figure no one will look in. Personally I once stored some proof sets in a non functioning portable dishwasher. Ran out of room in my safe at the time and figured most thieves don't come into a house to unload your dishes.[/QUOTE]
