Estate Sale Find

Postby Franco American » Thu Apr 14, 2022 7:55 pm

I regularly go to estate sales every week and ran into a great deal last week. There was a bag of Canadian coins with 2 Canadian one dollar bills in it. I looked and could see several silver dimes in the bag. Asked for the price and was told $3. Sold! Ended up having about $6.50 in Canadian currency with $2.30 of it in Silver King George and Elizabeth silver dimes. I was quite pleased to say the least.

Excellent. It’s always cool reading about these kind of great finds. Keeps us all motivated.

Very nice.

Cant wait to go to some yard sales and look for junk with copper, brass or bronze. Going to see if I can make some money this summer.

Estate sales are an excellent place to find precious metal. We should start a tracker for people to post their estate sale finds here.

Excellent
Silver Monometalism is the most permanent and stable form of money the world has seen. Natural law and history prove silver value is best multiplied by gold and best divided by copper. It is only in this counterfeit currency time when the natural law appears suspended.
