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?

A few itemsMy mum once found a naturally mummified toad in the garage. She wrapped it in a jewellery box and gave it to me for my birthday, along side a box of chocolates called "Mistle-Toads".
I was walking with a friend one afternoon and i spotted the head of a male plastic doll (Ken? GI Joe? I dunno, never played with dolls) just lying on the sidewalk. I screamed in a mocking sort of way, and my friend stuffed it in her purse. The rest of the walk was spent concocting murder theories.
Two years later, I was walking to work when I noticed a GI Joe doll at the edge of the road. What made me laugh was that it had no head.
Also on a walk, I discovered a pair of bird wings - with no bird attached. I was so fascinated, I took a picture which my friend then printed and glued in her diary.
