Helping my wife's Grandma cleaning her old house before she moves to the Old folks home we found a few cool things,

First in a old book she dropped on the floor a 5$ bill fell out, the bill was from 1963 and i OK Condition, she explained that her husband use to use a 5$ bill as bookmarks, and when he died she packed all his books in the box and on the attic.

Later when cleaning the old office she had i found in the back of her deskdrawer this coin... all i can get about it online is that it is a honor medal from the Vietnam War. Side 1 says "Veterans of Foreign Wars... Of the United States." Side 2 says "Vietnam The Wall."

Some very cool finds there! I guess when you get to the attic you will be checking books before you donate them! :wink: Sorry to hear Grandma is going to have to move. I hope she likes it there!
 
Nice. She must have forgotten it or used it as a book marker. Sorry to hear about her going to a nursing home. I hope I never end up in one of those places. I have too much time in them with my grandparents who have passed on. My only surving one is 95 and has plenty of family to keep her at home.
 
Congrats on those fins. :thumbsup:
