When I was a kid my grandpa and grandma were moved by my dad to our home as they weren't able to take care of themselves out on the country farm. When dad got them moved, grandma told dad to go back to the farm and look in the cellar which was accessed from inside the house. Also look inside the walls in a certain area. Dad and I went back and dad went into the old dirt cellar and scrapped around in the dirt. He found a tin about a square foot and 2 inches deep. Inside were over 500 silver dollars that grandpa had hoarded. Dad also poked around the walls and found tobacco sacks hanging on nails with about 30 $20 gold pieces. When dad took them to grandma she and grandpa bought candies etc. from the sales of those old coins.
