    MISSOURI CITY, Texas - It was an amazing find in an old dresser.


    A man shopping at an estate sale hit the jackpot with an item he purchased for less than $100 purchase.

    In that chest of drawers, he found a treasure chest full of gold, silver and antique jewelry.

    Emil Knodell is a self-proclaimed estate sale enthusiast.

    "I always come to a sale with an open mind because you never know," Knoddel said. "It's always good to come at the half-price time because then the big fun starts.

    Knoddel knew he was getting a good deal this weekend when he saw a solid, marble top, hand-crafted walnut chest marked down to $100.

    Everything seemed to check out, but Knoddel was in for a shock.

    "When we were loading it onto the truck, it sounded like a metallic waterfall," Knoddel said.

    To everyone's surprise, there was a false drawer.

    "We leaned it sideways and it sounded like a slot machine," Jeremy Allen of the Premiere Estate Sale Company said. "(We) looked at it and it was like the 'Hardy Boys.' Holy smokes, jackpot!"
