man went 51 years without his student ID and honestly never needed it again
Renovation uncovers wallet lost for 51 years
Carpenter Matty Goldsmith found a wallet under the floorboards of a Dartmouth, Nova Scotia home during a renovation. It held a driver's license, a Dartmouth High School student ID, a handwritten birth certificate, a single dollar bill, and a ticket to a 1975 performance of Hamlet. Goldsmith posted the find online; Donna Gilroy recognized it as her husband Richard's. The wallet was returned to Richard Gilroy, now 68, three days later. He said he remembered losing it there but was stunned by the $1.50 Hamlet ticket.
