yep worked in construction in my younger days. In PA, the people that went through The Great Depression tended not to trust banks. Found all sorts of stuff in walls and foundations. Money, Guns, tons of nude photos, and always razor blades in bathroom walls.

Go to YouTube and look up "Time Team Classics" - this was a TV series from about 20 years ago that ran for a decade about archeological digs in Britain, one of the most heavily dug countries in the world. Every time they dug, they found something new - as Calvin said "There's treasure everywhere!"
