I remember the Edmonds scientific catalogs, and wanting one of those magnets too.
They had a bunch of what seemed like cool stuff.
That was the golden age of catalogues. I miss it

Those hundreds are not terribly old. The Treasury had already started redesigning the 100s.

I still have the magnet and use it on occasion with my children. We don’t find as much - either because of where we fish now or perhaps more people magnet fish. We’ve never found safes nor money though we do find modern coins with a metal detector.

Sounds like they found a lockbox not a real safe.

“”””Sounds like they found a lockbox not a real safe.””””
That is what I thought, they were saying “safes” which would be weird, they probably meant they find old lockboxes, once they get old and rusty people don’t want them around when they are throwing out old junk, or upgrading to a fire resistant box or little safe.

OK. Tell them you found ONE coin. See what they do. Go forward from what happens there. If you get to keep it, great.

Unfortunately I’ve never been in the position of finding anything more valuable than a few flint arrowheads and “Indian money”!
But destroying a rare coin seems dumb.
Where would one pawn melted down gold?

Ziplocs were invented in 1968. According to Wikipedia.
