Not at all. The safe has value in itself now because it’s usable.
Probably at least 400 bucks worth of value.

Thank the contributors most of all! We have literally nothing to show for it, thanks to your generosity!
(Well, we did offer a small stimulus package to locksmiths in the Pittsburgh, PA area I suppose.)

Well it was all about the journey, man. Right? Right? Hello…
We were so preoccupied with whether or not we could that we didn’t stop to think if we should and if the camera had panned around to see the contents of that briefcase we might’ve seen that marsellus wallace had a penchant for foil-wrapped chocolate coins.

Here’s my Important Question…
Can Rob’s head fit in the safe?
Now that would be something for the next time capsule after Rob passes away.

Although, doing something about the boroscope-ready hole would probably be a necessity.

Sugru? 
Or, just leave a borescope hanging on the side of the safe and keep it as a conversation starter and puzzle for guests to try.

From what I understand of these things that lowers the value. But not very much. And it’s crazy common in old safes.
You can smash them open pretty simply these days so most models are no good as actual secure safes these days. So they mostly retain value as collectibles or antiques.

I love the smeared green paint and perfect brass patina on Rob’s safe.

If it’s restored it’ll be worth what it cost to get into it, he said. The latex paint over the front is the bigger issue. He filled the boroscope hole with two-part epoxy.

@beschizza, did you check the surfaces with an LED light (or colored lights) to see if there are any clues about where the doubloons are really hidden? Perhaps it is encoded in the weave of the carpet.
Perhaps you should just start digging some holes in the yard/basement just to check.
