Most of my baseball cards found their way into the spokes of my bicycle......

My husband was born in 1937 and had a shoe box full of baseball cards. His mother had kept them and tried to give them back to him when we got married...he didn't want them and they got thrown away....I wonder how much they would have been worth....

A couple of years ago one of my son's bought a 1920's bungalow type house. When he torn down the sofit in the kitchen a bag of silver coins landed on his head. That was before silver hit its high now, but in silver value alone he had over 2000 dollars. He put all new windows in the house with that money...his neighbor said the people that had that house before him was always finding money....bet the original owners lost money during the depression and hated banks...millions of american's felt the same way. There was just one bedroom up stairs with wood floor...you could see where a piece of flooring had been cut out and money put in and then the piece of flooring replaced.

That bag of coins came out of what was the upstairs floor..he found a lot of places that once held money, but that was what the owners before him probably found, they were all empty.....
