mmarotta Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 "... Mike DeGuerin, an attorney for the family, told ABC News affiliate KTRK that the coins were returned to the family. He told the station the family's father had been saving them for decades, but had died recently. Someone who was helping his family clear out the garage was given the safe to sell as scrap, but was supposed to return anything inside of value once he figured out a way to get it open. Smith said, "The two parties involved worked out their differences, and the coins were released to the individuals involved yesterday afternoon."

mmarotta Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 PS Among the lots were Krugerrands, modern coins, of course. Also, others were stored in ammo boxes, also a mode for hoarders of our generation, and not likely for anyone before 1940. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedeadpoint Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Wow. As the family, do you give a "finder's fee" to the man who opened the safe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
