Looks like we haven't had the Bargain Bin thread for a couple of months.
Time to dust off the tradition, I think.
Post yer goodies! Usual rules; nothing over $100, no eBay auctions, etc, etc.

Bermuda "Triangle" dollar (impaired silver proof), 1998.
KM104a, .925 silver/.5948 oz. A bit scuffy, apparently from being removed from its original packaging. Rescued from a bulk silver lot just because it was cool looking. Interesting toning with hints of lavender. Queen Lizzie's portrait still has some Cameo contrast. A proof catalogs $50.00 on the NGC/Krause priceguide, but you may have this one for... uhhh... $15? ***SOLD***
Late-medieval Ireland: hammered silver "Harp groat" of Henry VIII of England (1509-1547).
Admittedly, I do not have a full attribution on this Henry VIII coin yet, nor any real idea of its value (or lack thereof). I'll post a thread on the World Coin forum for assistance, since I'm separated from my Spink Ireland/Scotland book at the moment. This coin has Henry's "H" initial to the left of the harp and a "K" for one of his five wives, which indicates one of the three Catherines (Katherines) he married. I'm guessing maybe Katherine of Aragon, his first and longest marriage partner (m. 1509, annulled 1533). There is some raggedness to the edge of the flan and a small hole. Some green deposits appear to me to be natural verdigris rather than PVC. Still a neat piece of history. It is approximately the diameter of a US quarter, give or take. Until I get more information, I'll pull a number out of thin air and ask $49? ***SOLD***

Isle of Man proof crown (Royal wedding of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson), 1986.
KM174, copper-nickel, 38.5 mm. Nice cameo contrast. Plastic holder. Looks a tiny bit hazy in the photos, but not so much in hand. $7.
Philippines (US sovereignty) silver peso, 1907-S.
An attractive circ with no distractions. I'd call it VF. Struck at San Francisco. KM172, .800 silver/.5144 oz. $16.
USA: repoussé "popout" on 1900 Barber dime.
Some moderate wear which I thinks gives this piece character. Slightly domed or "Pringled" appearance (a word I just invented because the flan here is approximately the shape of a Pringles potato chip). Possibly was mounted on a ring back in the day. $25.
(I also have a very nice prooflike BU Italian 20-lire gold coin on the World Coins BST, but even though that is bargain priced, it doesn't fall under the $100 price cap for this "Bargain Bin" thread. Do please check it out over there if you are so inclined, however.)
Geez. No wonder the Bargain Bin tradition seems to have withered.
Oh well. I updated my selections above.
By all means, post yours, if you like.

That burgundy/red looks quite nice, too.
Worn, a little pitted, a little wonky but still easily identifiable as the very popular HT70 L51 Hard Times Token featuring Andrew Jackson as a pirate
with a saber raiding a strong box and a donkey on the reverse.
