NUMISMATIC CONTENTS FOUND IN ANTIQUE SAFE OPENED IN CONNECTICUT

Dick Johnson writes: "The Connecticut Historical Society received a
450-pound antique safe decades ago but for all that time no one could
open it. It was relegated to the basement of an historical house it
owned. Recently it was brought out from behind the furnace, and a
volunteer locksmith succeeded in cracking the combination and opened
it. Guess what it contained? Well first, was the combination to the
safe. Second, was a yellowed clipping from the 1930s. Third was a
group of four wooden tokens from Missouri. Grealdo Riveria would be
proud."
