That is hard to say; but, it may have been collected by someone enroute to/from the Vietnam war.
I love the idea of finding stuff hidden under the floorboards. My old man was once on a works detail (mandatory public works assignment during the early months of Castro's government) tasked to remodel the recently nationalized parts of old Havana. They are tearing down an interior wall on a 16th century building when they discover a large cache of gold coins. There was no chance to identify the treasure; the security detail immediately cleared the work crews and by the time they return the loot is gone. So even the communist can be lucky at times; although, the world may have forever lost an interesting time capsule, or, the final resting place of Blackbeard's loot.
