$300 Garage Sale Treasure Chest! Amazing find! See description below!

Yes... this actually happened, these coins were overall quite worn and not collector grade, I did pull any high value coins out and sell separately. I was at our shop when a customer, and friend came into the shop and asked if I wanted to go to an estate sale with them. I said sure and hopped in his car. We were nearly first to arrive that day, and among some other great finds at the sale was this chest of coins with an asking price of $300. I purchased it on the second day of the sale and surprisingly nobody else touched it because the top layer was mostly pennies and didn’t look that exciting. It was a gamble as I wasn’t even sure I would have $300 in face value
At first. I didn’t include this in the video because it took a little while to sell everything, no hugely significant coins... but with the rolled coins, rarer coins and silver it came to a profit of more then $2000, which really helped pay the bills that month :) and... don't forget to subscribe and check out our website at www.curiosityedmonton.ca

That's the awesome thing about humans, there's always someone ready for a challenge. I dislike repetition but as a potential engineering problem the task is inspiring. Though there's no doubt many commercial coin sorting machines already, getting to design and build automation for this task could rewarding especially since for limited use it doesn't have to be robust on industrial scale like a bank might have and you could get away with fun hacks. Mechanical automation is a bit out of my wheelhouse but there's plenty of software and electrical things that could be used here. It could be a pipeline from feeding mechanism leading to a scale mounted on a tipping hinge, a servo-controlled diverter that would lead to series of PVC pipes, one for each type of coin. And if the weight tolerances aren't enough to discern between coins of equal weight there could be a camera and opencv program to pick up differences on average color value or size. Feeding mechanism could be a slowly moving belt with a mechanism to keep coins from being on top of each other, it could lead to a tipping trough that pauses the belt and feeds individual coins to the scale (converging to a slot might let more than one coin through at a time even if springloaded). Scale would be connected to arduino or similar that controls the diverter and hinge motor.

In the mid 90s the C&H sugar factory, in Hawaii, cleared out their old bank vault and deposited all their rolled coins to the local bank. My work at the time ordered a bunch of change for the tils and received a lot of those rolls. Every one from WWII. I bought nearly all the pennies left (some employees beat me to most of it) from them. About $5 in steel pennies rolled and uncirculated. A couple rolls of nickles, dimes, and quarters.

Fyi. American quarters, half dollars and, dollars and dimes, just look on the edge, if it is all silver color, it is silver. There are many years where there were cupronickel and also either 40% or 90% silver made for collectors, so, just going by year, you might miss some, but quarters, dimes halves and dollars 1964 and before 90% silver always. Half dollars for 1965-1969 40% silver. And nickels with the large mint mark over the building are also 30% silver If memory serves.

I live in Florida and one day found an old cash register, 1899?, in the trash. It turned out to be from Canada. I pulled the drawer out and found some old bills wedged in the back and some coins stuck between the base and sides. I managed to get them out and was telling my step daughter that coins from Canada were made of steel and if we were magnet fishing they would be easier to find than with a metal detector. So to show her I held a magnet over them and it only picked up half of them. By accident I learned Canada minted silver coins until 1968. I ended up with five dimes and two quarters.

OK, a gal has to know, was the nugget real gold and was the necklace diamonds. My guess is no on the neckless, but who knows on the nugget. I also had a great surprise on an estate sale auction. They had a safe they were having trouble getting the combination for and the auction had already started. They finally got it open, went it quickly, through together lots having no clue what had value and what didn't. None of us had been able to preview what came from the safe, when a lot came up with a cameo bid $25 and got it. Here's what was in that lot; (1) very expensive cameo brooch , (2) Italian mosaic brooche, (1) ladies Bulova white gold, black rope wrist watch with 1 quarter carat diamond on either side of the watch face. Of course the big finds were the watch and cameo. I gave the cameo to my closet friend after her father passed and she was told it was quite valuable. I. Can believe it as it was truly beautiful and extremely well made. As alive the watch, I love very old, feminine, dainty jewelry, so I fell in love with it immediately. It's a wind up watch and wasn't running and the rope had been cut, so off to my jeweler I went. I told him the story of the auction, that I loved the watch, but wouldn't fix it unless it was worth it. He just stood there and laughed at me. He said the watch was very nice quality and probably only need cleaning and of course a new rope band. Then he said, but the two quarter carats on the watch most definitely made it worth it. What did I do, argue with him that they were only crystals as I only paid $25 for the whole lot. Well, he one that arguement and I got the deal of the century, a beautiful give for a life long friend some beautiful watch for me. Oh, the Italian brooches were a nice throw in. Lol. Congrats on your coin adventure and profit...

I wish that guys would sell these hordes before they die. If not, it just ends up selling as junk at a garage sale or pawn shop.

A good lesson for us all. We don't live forever, so at some point the collection is going to change hands. Maybe a good rule of thumb is that by 75 years old, the collection should be sold. Make cash investments that your heirs won't sell at a garage sale.

You want to mine out the copper and not give it to the bank! Copper is not magnetic so it's easy to find and can be 3x the value. Great show keep digging.

My father thought that they would eventually discontinue pennies. So he started saving them. When he died I took to the bank 20 3lb coffee cans that were full of rolled pennies. Yea, it was over 500.00 in pennies!! It was crazy!!

My older sister is convinced that pennies will be phased out, too... she has been for years. I think that her thinking on the process is that banks will pay more for them (or other collectors?) when they are discontinued. She has quite a collection of bags of pennies in her basement, after she weeds through them for wheats, they go in the bag.

Here in Australia we did away with our 1 and 2 cent pieces which then got reused as the Bronze medals for the Sydney Olympics

OMG, I had some of those books as a child. Some of them belonged to my dad, and some my grandmother bought me at yard sales and flea markets. I miss those books so much. My dad inherited her house and the roof started leaking badly and he couldn’t afford to fix it, and so much of my old stuff is ruined with mold/mildew now. :(
