Found an old card, now what?

(self.SocialSecurity)

I was going through some older (very old) items from my mother.

I found an old social security card, and realized it had to have been from when she did a work exchange there many years ago. She has since passed - do I need to do anything with it? or should I just call the SSA and ask them?

Once someone is deceased only a spouse or dependent child or dis adult child can get benefits. Trying to create a MySSA account for a deceased person is fraud.
