The coolest thing about it is...
The safe had lots of old coins in it

Roby's Detective Story:
When our family was cleaning out our basement, we found an old army safe. We called a Locksmith, and he said that the lock was broken Later, I told dad that there were small holes in the bottom of the safe.Then, he thanked me, went outside, got his pickax and sledgehammer. Then he went to it. After a couple of minutes, he had a hole big enough for his hand to go through!!! When he brought his hand out, he had old,old,old coins in it. I mean liberty coins,buffalo nickels, you name it. It was so cool!!
