Quote:My grandmother collected US "double eagles", worth $20 each when they were produced. Each was ~one ounce of gold. When she died she left her guns to my brother, her books to me, and two dozen jars of home-canned peaches to my sister. Sis didn't think much of that distribution. She declared that she'd eat every damn peach herself. The jars were sealed with wax and she used a knife to pry one off. The wax flipped through the air and broke when it landed on the floor. Hidden inside was one of the double eagles. From that point it was "too hell with the fruit!" We ditched all the preserved food items in her cellar, but only the peaches had the coins. Another two hundred or so were never found. Not by anybody who would admit finding them, that is.
Your grandmother was a cwiminal! She had no respect for the Gold Reserve Act!
