I was sitting and thinking last weekend about all the different "stuff" I have found over the years. A lot of it has just been in various boxes by category. The coins are kept in a nice "auction find" safe from an old jewlery store. I decided to get some of it out and reminisce a bit. I am sure many of you have even far more than this, but it was fun to dig it out (again) and go through it.
I have decided to make some display cases this winter and hang it in my "man room". lol
There are Matchbox toys, Tootsie toys, old pocket watch parts, pocket knives, lots of crotal bells, toy gun parts, a real gun, axe heads, tons of wheaties, some indians, some mercs, some silver quarters, some silver halves, some silver dollars, etc.
I will show a close-up of my oldest coin to date.......an 1823 Capped bust half.
It was a lot of fun to go back through it all. It is funny how you can remember "finding that" along the old fence line behind "that old house site". lol
Enjoy the tour!
Tim
