    Something to toss you pocket change and keys into for the night, way cool!

    I think you should swell with exonumic pride, the noncollectors you know will admire
    them MUCH more than the coins they oughta be interested in, believe me.
    Every day is a gift.

    I have been known to buy the odd-ball item every now and then...like the two sterling spoons from the Columbian Exposition, a Connecticut nutmeg pin, Pilgrim Tercentenary medals, etc...

    Outhaul: I agree that those are cool, and you didn't have to pay a whole lot above silver melt value:

    2.5 ozt x 4 bowls = 10 ozt x .925 Fine Sterling = 9.25 ozt x $7.70 Spot Silver = $71.23 Silver melt
    $90.81 / $71.23 = 27% Premium Over Melt

    Well Done !! image And I bet you are the first one on your block (and even on this forum) to have a set!! image

    Gee, Stuart...I never even stopped to do the numbers, but you're right...I feel MUCH better now...image

    And I won them with only six seconds to spare!

    Isn't (or wasn't) this seller, eBay ID nugboy, a forum member? The name rings a bell.

    Cheers,

    Bob
