Mother in law had an upholstery shop ... I remember a couple mason jars with nothing but silver that came from antique furniture she recovered over the years. I used to help, but it was with the understanding that the coins were hers.

We had lots of old stuff come through that were filled with horse hair and moss ... so, you can imagine how old some of the coins were.

No gold coins that I know of, but quite a few rings ... including some with diamonds. She always returned the rings, but "kept the change."
