Hi - I found a sterling silver spoon today at a local estate sale. It is marked sterling and weighs 35.5 gms. I paid $.25 for it. Not a bad deal eh? I guess if you look at enough junk you find something every now and then

Nice find. I have yet to score big at an estate sale for items other than coins.

I have no patience for pennies... kudos to anyone willing to search those things! I'll stick with halves, quarters, and sometimes dimes. Even dimes are taxing if you don't get the ones in clear rolls. My hands start to ache after like 10 rolls cuz they're just too small to deal with...
