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?

Blue vitriolBreaking into barns in the middle of the night, we found a five gallon bucket of some blue crystaline powder, which turned out to be blue vitriol (copper sulfate), which is used as a fungicide. AND REALLY SUPER TOXIC!!!
We dissolved the powder and grew some of the most amazing deep blue crystals. Could have died in the process, and my dad got some in his eye once (could have blinded him), but man, you should have seen those crytals! Big as your thumb and the truest blue you have ever seen!
