I'm a cable tech. A few years ago, an installer colleague was doing work in a subscriber's basement, alone, and while running a new line along the ceiling, knocked an old coinpurse down from the rafters. The subscriber had moved into the house within the past year, and the coinpurse had clearly not been touched in many years. My colleague is a curious sort of guy, and opened it to find over $2200 in bills printed in the 1940s-50s. He put the coinpurse back in the rafters and tried not to think about it anymore.
Keep in mind:
It had been abandoned by whoever put it there.
The homeowners certainly didn't know it was there.
Cable guys don't make much money.
What would you have done?
