It isn't just valuables like jewelry, rare coins and collectibles that can be unclaimed.

Sometimes it is money!
Unclaimed money can come from savings or checking accounts, stocks, un-cashed dividends or payroll checks, refunds, traveler's checks, trust distributions, unredeemed money orders or gift certificates (in some states), insurance payments or refunds and life insurance policies, annuities, certificates of deposit, customer overpayments, utility security deposits, mineral royalty payments, and contents of safe deposit boxes.  State governments attempt to locate the rightful owners. If this fails, fails the money may go to the state coffers.
