First of all if I was absent minded and stupid enough to misplace and almost throw away that much money I would be embarrassed to tell people about it and would be pissed at myself for almost pissing it away. but that is just me.

You know how people stretch the truth here. For all we know you went to the safe to get the coins out so you could cash them in because you needed the money and you forgot the combination and had to cut them out and the "story" you posted here sounded a lot better to you so you changed up the details some. None of us know except for you.
