more records and coins + jewelry

[jerseyben]

Another stellar weekend of acquisition.

Answered another ad for records and ended up with a great deal on a large lot of Beatles records. Also got some coins in the same deal (to sweeten the deal for me). This deal includes a sealed copy of Beatles 65 (pictured in the middle). Also updated my own copies of Meet the Beatles with original Capitol Mono and Stereo pressings and A Hard Day's Night LP. This is the 2nd Friday in a row that I scored a killer deal on records and coins after work. The coins are less than exciting picking up 2 uncirculated mint sets, 2 proof sets, a few sparsely filled coin books (only coins worth mentioning were 4 war nickels), and a gold plated 1964 kennedy half.

Sat morning work up early and had my map ready. Followed some signs along the way and ended up scoring the following for the day:
Box of junk jewelry - $3 (found 1 taxco 925 mexico earring, a 1/20 12k GF brooch, and two 14k earrings both tested real)
Assorted sterling pieces - $1 each (including a "Studio Else & Paul Norway" modernist sterling ring)
Nice estate pipe - $1 (almost lost this to some old lady when i set it down for literally 2 seconds to look at something)
Like new complete in original package "Time Zero One Step Land Camera" polaroid camera with flash pack- $4
4 Assorted local bottles including 1 dairy - $1 each
Two 50' outdoor "orange" extension cords - $1

Nice finds. I'm interested to see what that camera sells for. The time zero isn't as popular as the alpha 1 but it should sell pretty well since it's NIB. I just sold a pack of the time zero film exp.01/95 for $15.
