"I once was lost, but now am found"

What have you recovered via spring cleaning that you had misplaced?

Today I found an 1858 Canada 10 cent piece (PCGS AU55) in the bottom of a big box with non-numismatic odds and ends. The only other coins in the box were Canada 1 cent pieces from George VI's reign, a 1935 silver thrupence, and a few other junk box finds that I'd stuffed in a film canister.

Any other good finds?

BTW, the 1858 10 cent piece was in one of LamminL's green slab cozies (I also found 4 empty stab cozies in the box).

Slightly off topic but on a similar vain. Someone we know and will hopefully visit this comming August has dug up a hidden cash of Japanesse wartime currency, just notes I believe but by all account quite a large quantity. Hopefully I'm going to get the chance to look it over and then seek advice of if they are still of any value.

I have not been collecting long enough yet to lose anything and than refind it. (2 years this month) I've misplaced one already but it has yet to turn up!

I did, however, go through the family spending jar after being sure I had pulled everything I wanted out of it, and managed to find a date/mintmark combination I had somehow managed to miss.

I have a Newfoundland 1894 50c in EFish condition that I've 'lost' and found about 4 times so far. Whenever I can't find it I know it'll show up after a while.

I found this while I was looking through some suff for the never ending give-a-way... Needless to say this did NOT go into the box but rather right into my collection where it should have been from the day I bought it!

I have now reached the stage where I forget what I have lost.

I like that, so true for me also.
