Found on one of my Fla. trips a few yrs ago
it contained 4 _$20s - 1_$10 - 1_$5 and 5 _$1s = $100
little story behind this find
I was hunting with Bill Harris - who some S. Fla. hunters may know (met him like 10 yrs ago on SOBE - been friends ever since)
Dont know if it was the sun or what - got a terrible migrain - I was hunting out chest deep - this place is real trashy in shallow
lots of cans - big foil balls and large junk in close -
so pain gets too much - I yell to my girlfriend who is sitting on shore line with Bill's wife - I ask if she has any meds and she says yes - so I start in
bout waist deep I get a blast - scoop and get a flattened can - pouch it and moving fast towards my gal I get another loud signal and figure its another can - I give it a scoop and keep walking in - Im like in calf deep water now and approaching her I look in scoop and see this mud caked object - bills were covered with mud - I saw back of brass and thought it was a car part or something -
pick it out as I keep on walking - I flip it and give it a rub and see "DAD" - I say money clip! and dunk it to get some of the mud off the bills - then saw they were slightly flaking - I told my girlfriend to give me a cup and pour some fresh water in it - I carefully slid wad out of clip and placed it in the fresh water - I told her dont try and peel them - they'll come apart - just give the cup a little shake now and then and mud will slowly come off - carefully change water - slowly the bills unraveled - then I carefully laid them on a towel and let then dry - when I got home I took them to the bank and they gave me a brand new $100 bill for them
