Hidden TreasureMy landlord had some builders in to remove a staircase in an outbuilding when a rusty biscuit tin fell out from under the woodwork.
What wonders were in this hidden treasure box? Two live hand grenades and 40 rounds of ammunition. From WW2. I've never seen builders run before.
What hidden treasures have you uncovered?

Found ObjectsAs a kid I loved picking up shiny objects - single earrings, broken bits of jewelry, loose beads, rinestones, sequins, etc. I have two small bags worth of pretty junk to prove it.
When I was a baby I found a diamond ring, and my greatest find (as a kid) was one dollar at Disney World that I happily used to buy Gummi bears.
Up until high school I didn't go to school close to home so I had to stay at other people's houses after school. Sadly I was so cowed by the "mothers" who watched me that I never tried looking around their houses. In jr. high I found a cute stuffed Simba in my sitter's garage and I somehow convinced the sitter to let me keep it (It's in the garage, so your kids won't care if it's missing!). I have it still!
