Saw this today on a book review if any wants to try to find the reviewer...

Jan Halliday, Port Townsend, WA USA
When I set up my journal, for example, and included as she suggested, a token amount of money I chose the new US dollar coin with Sacajawea and her new baby embossed on one side. This led to pages of writing--including memories of handling coins kept in a muffin tin when I was a young girl selling 2-lb. cans of golden honey from a stand near Mount Rainier, the sense of security as long as I have an old coffee can full of coins--and the gold coins my great grandfather buried in the woods behind his farmhouse that no one has yet found.

Still got the link? The folks are building up there and this might be an interesting side trip someday.

I think I got all the relevant info, but you can try to google her name and other keywords. She was on Amazon reviewing a book - she wasn't the author. I think it would be best to try to find her locally and ask her more about the story. Maybe the woods haven't been developed yet! Hope this helps.

Here's one from your neck of the woods from the Seattle P-I October 19, 1895. I don't know if it's related to the one above though.
