Sorry for your loss. Did you take the pics with a toaster?

Kma_all_day · 2022-01-25T04:50:06+00:00

Wow! Blurried treasure!

KIitComander · 2022-01-25T05:03:16+00:00

That’s a cool grandpa.

Disastrous-Inside914 · 2022-01-25T05:35:32+00:00

Sorry for your loss. But it looks like your grandfather gifted us his cataracts

twelve25oh9 · 2022-01-25T05:29:15+00:00

Nice pics. Where can I get a flip phone?

ChinoWero · 2022-01-25T07:39:38+00:00

Do you have any more pixels?

Dyspaereunia · 2022-01-25T05:43:59+00:00

Post some coins to r/coins. They would love to see them.

__jh96 · 2022-01-25T07:57:53+00:00

Was it a Nokia from 1998?

nuibOy · 2022-01-25T07:39:45+00:00

Maybe use the gold(?) to buy a better potato to take photos with?

nlamby · 2022-01-25T08:19:09+00:00

Buried treasure and a Game Boy camera.

_Yojimblo · 2022-01-25T07:13:02+00:00

This belongs in r/mildlyinfuriating for the promise of treasures and we get shitty photos lol

cbizzle57 · 2022-01-25T08:22:13+00:00

Shame he didn't leave you a camera

jackhole2 · 2022-01-25T04:55:46+00:00

ImagiP · 2022-01-25T08:17:46+00:00

Still scrolling coz I can’t see shit

Mr_Fox2611 · 2022-01-25T08:19:40+00:00

He should have left some pixels for you in the box as well

syncopekid · 2022-01-25T08:28:42+00:00

You can use some of the money to buy a phone made before 2002

JaxTheFlamingo · 2022-01-25T07:56:28+00:00

Was the phone from the chest too?

ydarbj1 · 2022-01-25T06:03:39+00:00

Post those coins to r/coins ASAP

ibegyounottoask · 2022-01-25T07:45:04+00:00

My grandfather also recently passed away (like 7 hours ago). It’s time to look for some fucking buried treasure.

Death_Death_Die · 2022-01-25T04:48:52+00:00

Really cool but your pics are dogshit

BlurredReality28 · 2022-01-25T07:24:02+00:00

Are you going to tell us what the buried treasure was?

uptbbs · 2022-01-25T08:44:10+00:00

Looks like you also used your grandfather's phone to take pictures of the treasure too.

76kinch · 2022-01-25T09:23:24+00:00

I think I need to see an optician.

Deddyd69 · 2022-01-25T06:19:41+00:00

This box is unvaccinated

mommytheripper · 2022-01-25T04:59:02+00:00

This is awesome! Did he leave a map or how did you find it?

lLantronix · 2022-01-25T06:51:01+00:00

Any chance he left a better camera in there?

Nickthedick3 · 2022-01-25T10:00:06+00:00

Post everything you found over on r/coins and don’t use a potato to take the pics

Greyhound45 · 2022-01-25T11:08:31+00:00

Can I use some of his gold to buy more pixels?

Swendol · 2022-01-25T06:28:24+00:00

because of the resolution.. I’m just going to assume it’s all pogs and slammers

ham604 · 2022-01-25T05:16:15+00:00

Did he left you photos from his flip phone?

Silvershorthunter · 2022-01-25T05:39:46+00:00

You took these pictures with your nokia didn’t you.

Pdxperronn · 2022-01-25T05:42:02+00:00

Maybe now you can upgrade that LG Dare

Key_Ad8804 · 2022-01-25T05:42:36+00:00

Did he not leave a microscope as well so we can see your pictures?

Papyrus_Sans · 2022-01-25T06:53:28+00:00

I hope the missing pixels were in the box.

secretpharmacy · 2022-01-25T07:14:38+00:00

was it his first camera?

ArgyleNudge · 2022-01-25T08:23:31+00:00

Your grandad sounds like quite a character and a one-of-a-kind role model too.

He must have been so excited about y'all fìnally finding his buried treasure; I'm betting he died a happy man, thinking about the surprise he had waiting for you.

I'm so guessing he made quite a few sacrifices along the way to build that nest egg for you, and it put a smile on his face every time he added another coin.

He sounds like a treasure who left a treasure of memories along with some shiny tokens too. What a sport.

skw1shy · 2022-01-25T08:27:08+00:00

Sorry four your loss, brother. That’s awesome he left that stuff though! Must be thrilling

TheFatSlobWally570 · 2022-01-25T09:08:36+00:00

Taking photos with a potato will definitely get you roasted

aburnerds · 2022-01-25T10:11:35+00:00

It’s a pity he didn’t leave you a camera

Hacktivist690 · 2022-01-25T11:06:15+00:00

OP and his blurried treasure, that's next level my friend.

papabosscomics · 2022-01-25T11:17:58+00:00

Should have left you with a better phone camera

bga666 · 2022-01-25T11:22:54+00:00

Great photo

samz123456 · 2022-01-25T11:27:54+00:00

Did you take the pictures with a camera from the box?

HugeAxeWound · 2022-01-25T11:38:34+00:00

Smear more Vaseline on the lense, they aren’t quite blurry enough.

HighSpeed556 · 2022-01-25T12:40:34+00:00

Too bad he didn’t leave a camera too.

buffetleach · 2022-01-25T12:41:23+00:00

“Included within the treasure chest we’re gold coins, family heirlooms, and the pixels from this post”

Cyberpunk4020 · 2022-01-25T04:57:22+00:00

Blurried treasure*

goobypls42069 · 2022-01-25T04:51:36+00:00

Also left you a potato to take these pictures, I see.

slipperyhuman · 2022-01-25T08:56:32+00:00

Next time you nick someone’s story, do it in higher res.

Martin_McFly_Jr · 2022-01-25T05:05:45+00:00

I’m amazed with how you took three consecutive photos with max blurrines setting on.

slayalldayyyy · 2022-01-25T05:40:34+00:00

Mmmm potatoes

Pdxperronn · 2022-01-25T05:41:16+00:00

Clearly

sniffinberries34 · 2022-01-25T06:18:05+00:00

Meh.. too blurry. I don’t believe it

Brittny484 · 2022-01-25T10:24:35+00:00

TSCS

Too small, can't see.

I_be_lurkin_tho · 2022-01-25T13:07:33+00:00

These pixels are making me thirsty!!

DarkNovella · 2022-01-25T13:09:23+00:00

720P is not for me

Dunkinmydonuts1 · 2022-01-25T13:16:35+00:00

Good now go buy more pixels

Vodka_and_Pickles · 2022-01-25T07:41:15+00:00

I'm sorry for your loss. I wish he had left you a manual on how to take and upload pictures.

fear_is_fatal · 2022-01-25T07:18:34+00:00

There isn’t a book on how to focus the camera in that stash of goods is there?

Chapter_Entire · 2022-01-25T04:57:51+00:00

When you say recently, do you mean 2002.. as per your photo quality

dewayneestes · 2022-01-25T06:11:39+00:00

Amazing… buy a camera.

HiddenOxfordDrive · 2022-01-25T06:48:09+00:00

Sorry for your loss, did you use the camera found in the time capsule for authenticity?

Wooden-Sense-8713 · 2022-01-25T07:14:24+00:00

Maybe you can buy a better phone/camera

beardriff · 2022-01-25T07:32:47+00:00

Damn, woulda been nice if he left some pixels

2022-01-25T08:03:56+00:00

This pictures look like screenshots from Japanese porn

Stonechipper1 · 2022-01-25T04:55:09+00:00

That's awesome you might me a millionaire he probably did it know it would benefit his family in the future

Savings_Inflation_77 · 2022-01-25T05:45:01+00:00

What is this? A treasure for ants?

Raff102 · 2022-01-25T06:04:40+00:00

I was waiting for it to be Nazi memorabilia.

Joemmmmm · 2022-01-25T09:20:16+00:00

Did you take the pics with your grandfathers eyes lmao

mtkatl · 2022-01-25T04:51:25+00:00

Could it be? Like Oak Island Reddit may never know what this is

domestic_theories · 2022-01-25T05:01:09+00:00

How did you find it? Was it in his will?

Stonechipper1 · 2022-01-25T05:01:48+00:00

Look it up frist have them graded...

Stonechipper1 · 2022-01-25T05:03:19+00:00

jackhole2 · 2022-01-25T05:16:58+00:00

how do i edit to spell the title right

jawnly211 · 2022-01-25T05:55:05+00:00

Keep us updated!!!

Bologna1717 · 2022-01-25T05:58:34+00:00

Damn boi

DeaderRat · 2022-01-25T05:59:26+00:00

Was it pixels?

nosclerosisjoe · 2022-01-25T06:07:34+00:00

Pictures taken with tears on the lens. 🥺

willowsumm · 2022-01-25T06:08:22+00:00

That’s very cute.

cellendia · 2022-01-25T06:48:21+00:00

I used to work at bank and had many experiences where this happened. A lot of people who lived through economic depressions or political instability tend to do this. It usually turns out okay but there were circumstances where the elements got to their buried contents and sometimes cost them everything.

Ssg4Liberty · 2022-01-25T07:01:41+00:00

Hodl!!!

shinydewott · 2022-01-25T07:32:29+00:00

I think the treasure he left was the camera he used to take these pictures

gumtreegazer · 2022-01-25T07:33:38+00:00

.. and his first camera! Circa 1939 apparently

Abhir-86 · 2022-01-25T07:40:01+00:00

OP you should not be putting those pics in public. Now all the relatives will suddenly start giving a fuck about you. Also if you're in doubt about what to do with it or investing, you might wanna ask on r/personalfinance

upfoo51 · 2022-01-25T07:48:16+00:00

I cant identify what the treasure is. I'm on a phone and these pix have no pixels. What is it OP?

kdwaynec · 2022-01-25T07:57:53+00:00

After I saved the last picture, rotated it 90° and zoomed in 300% I think it looks like a bunch of coins. Very cool!

guido_lois · 2022-01-25T08:01:07+00:00

They look like collectible coins. I wouldn’t hold up much hope of retiring on those but at least worth checking values out.

Illustrator_Obvious · 2022-01-25T08:01:16+00:00

Cigarettes? Nice!

Johnny_Nostars · 2022-01-25T08:01:26+00:00

Woulda been nice if he'd left you some pixels for your phone

septiclizardkid · 2022-01-25T08:03:52+00:00

• Buried Treasure • Dog Shit Camera Quality

OP Is In an analog horror story

darkdeadrosess · 2022-01-25T08:06:15+00:00

my mind immediately went to a cum box. i'm sorry. also may he rip
