[pianotech] Item found inside pianos

[Tom Driscoll]

I found a bag of weed in a grand piano about 30 years ago. The Mom was right there when I pulled it out.  I'm glad I wasn't that teenager later that day.

  Yesterday I pulled the stack out of an old Playotone player ready for tuning and discovered a single diamond resting on the keyboard. The lady of the house came into the room and I asked her to hold out her hand. I then placed the gem into her hand, and the tears began to fall. She had lost the diamond out of her engagement ring two years before, and had no idea where it had gone. One happy customer I can tell you.
  On another occasion I discovered a sapphire ring inside a grand which had been lost by 'Gran' who thought it had gone out with the garbage.
  Has anyone else found interesting items when tuning?
