Hidden Treasure
My 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?

during my cub days
I used to help out at the church jumble sales. On one particular occasion I came across a box of jewelry that also contained a Nazi war medal.
I took it to a local antique dealer who offered me £25 (this was 16 years ago) I decided to think on it and took it to a proper military shop who sold old medals and guns and he told me it was a repro and worth about a fiver at best.
I then returned to the antique shop and closed the deal for £25. nice one
