Not a great start to the CRH this month, going to be tough beating last years total with 3 fewer boxes but it can happen though it is quite unlikely.

My dump bank didnt have any dimes or nickels for me, (Game show failure sound). I didnt have anything to dump with them either so I can dump Wednesdays dump with them.

Todays auctions did well if I do say so myself. Tomorrow is a big auction with many high dollar items, doubtful I will get anything but I am looking at one item that would be a perfect root-beer mug but since I dont drink alcohol. Even if I did, beer taste horrible I prefer tequila all the way and you dont use 1780's tankards for tequila unless you have a death wish and I am not Charles Bronson.

That was called a tangent and I made it my mistress.

Auction held some secret surprises for me, I thought I didnt do too good but after some research, I learned a little something and found out I did quite well in the long run, once things sell.

Purchased 2 boxes in the box lot they had. Got a sprinkling of silver in there which didnt add up to the price but I was also going after a few other items. Piad $5 per box, sp spent $10 total.

One coin is obviously a seated liberty quarter, the other I am not so sure what it is. I think it might be British. Dont have time to go through my foreign coins to make a match.

IMAG0176.jpg IMAG0178.jpg

As for the sprinkling and extras.

1893 whetstone

IMAG0173.jpg IMAG0174.jpg IMAG0175.jpg

Unknown age of whetstone

IMAG0181.jpg

Bulova $20 gold piece desk alarm clock

IMAG0179.jpg IMAG0180.jpg

So over all, between the sprinkling (0.3301) the Liberty Quarter (0.1808) and the unknown coin, I will have broke even before selling the other goodies.

I will update as soon as I figure out the unknown coin and unknowingness.

I was almost certain it was a British coin, I knew I had seen that reverse before.

I am considering the silver free as I was initially drawn to other items I wanted and the silver was just a bonus.

Half boxes this month are barely producing.

At auction I picked up these items below.

$3.00 - 10k PTA pin (0.0241)
$5.00 - 2 Candle Sticks which I will keep for my someday hopedully soon new house ( 1.0000 )
$1.00 - 2 Gold Filled Watches
$48.00 - 24 Military Challenge coins

Already sold one challenge coin for $10, I have the $20 gold coin I picked up sold locally for $20, nice $15 profit there for some extra to the stash.

Next weekend sees 1 auction on Friday, 3 on Saturday and 1 on Sunday. Sunday should be my big winner, unless Friday shows anything interesting, I will know by end of day. Saturday has 3 auctions in town so I will hit all 3 and decide from there. One has some interesting items, 1 has nothing listed and the third has items listed, nothing interesting but I will go and look anyways.

I am running behind in my silver totals, I should be at 8+ ounces at this point in the month and I am sitting barely below 5 oz.

Missed out on a deal for a 10k gold ring. maybe next weekend they will have thier stuff out at the flea market and I can grab it up. They wanted $40 for it, there was easily $80-$100 in gold, I tried to get them to go $30, they would not. I will go back next week and hopefully see them out there and grab it. I need my gold.

Oh yeah and on my Wednesday pick up of 2 boxes on the 11th, I saw a guy dump a little over $440 in halves. I am guessing by the volume of the new bag. It will be a while until I can get that bag and I saw no shiny edges but that means nothing. Looking forward to that bag heh.

Friday auction netted me a single bracelet that I over paid for but I wanted something.

Auction on Saturday were alright. Coins were not listed so not many showed up for them so I got some good deals.

Sterling Spoon ($1.00/0.6305)
Americana coin collection ( Merc/Lib Quart/Walk half) ($3.00/0.6148)
Merc / War Nickel/ Standing liberty quarter ($2.50/ 0.3094 )
90% Kennedy Half / 1963 Proof Franklin ($2.00/0.7234)

Sunday Auction... Helped the auctioneer out and made $10, helped me kill the hour waiting for the auction to start as well so it was a win/win for me. Picked up a few items as choice for $1 ea but since it was free money, it cost me nothing. She still owes me $7 in credit for the auction coming up in 2 weeks.

Sterling Earrings ($0.00/0.1903)
Two 14k watches front ($0.00/0.0712)
Two 14k watches back ($0.00/0.0525) - Not going to add backs until I have them tested, doubt they are gold

2 boxes on Wednesday and 5 more on Friday. 8.0543 oz away from this months goal

Todays auction went early for me. Got some sterling earrings, a sterling bracelet that is broken but its till silver, another broken sterling bracelet, some gold filled cuff links and what appears to be a old, possibly hand worked, 14k bacelet. I got everything super cheap as I seem to always do at this place so if the 14k bracelet doesnt work out, its not that big of a deal.

Sterling Earrings ($1.00/0.1784)
Siam Sterling Bracelet & Broach ($2.00/2.3048)

Possibly 14k bracelet ($2.00/0.2343)

I dipped the 14k bracelet in some tarnex and sure as hell it has that bright 14k shine now, I think its real so I am quite pleased. The more gold I can wear to an auction, hopefully the more intimidating I am :D I will still get the braclet checked out electronically tomorrow.

I also have a bracelet that I am not sure if it is or isnt silver, its marked 925 but its not reacting correctly to my crappy acid... need a new bottle I think, I think this stuff I got was bunk as I have had a hard time of it reacting to anything.

Possibly 925 bracelet. ($2.00/1.1182)

Tomorrows auction is going to be off the hook, so much stuff, approx 25 pounds of sterling silver. Some items with hallmarks were thrown in with some silver plate so that is what I am going to go for since I am running a bit low on the flow, it you know what I mean.

Todays auction held a lot, a whole lot of silver but I got very little. Vlad pulled a number of items but I didnt get much. Too many money bags there and I could not compete with resell value people when I am buying for scrap. I also ran out of cash after lending Vlad $650 to buy some stuff so I missed out on quite a bit of the auction but overall, my $20 spend did me real well with a $380+ return. I still have plenty of stuff to sell that was not sterling or gold from that lot so I will make quite a bit of my money back on it. I already sold one swiss army knife for $5 of the $20 purchase price but that money will go into my free money fund which currently sits at $228.

Sterling salt and pepper shakers ( glass with sterling tops ) not added to list, will be sold on Friday to collector.

Paid $20 for a box lot below, scored real well. It is all I managed to get.

Sterling Earring ($2.00/0.0506)

14k gold ring no stone ($2.00/0.0787)

1/20th 10k GF knife body($2.00/0.0027)
1/10th 14k pen body ($2.00/0.0129)

The possibly not gold bracelet tested not gold on my friends tester, I will get a second opinion on it and go from there so it will stay on the list for now but may be removed from next weeks totals.

You are very precise with what you spend, earned and the silver and gold rate. It was a bit confusing to read at first, but by far one of my favorite logs! Keep the post coming.

It helps me keep track of what I do in case I forget to log something etc. Plus its interesting to me to see how I am doing each month.

End of the month totals.

After looking over the possibly not gold bracelet in natural light instead of florecent, I have concluded its not gold. I will still get it tested but at least I am not out much at all.

Forgot to log a 14k broken chain and 14k pendent and I found a candle base piece for many a candelabra that has a faint imprent of sterling on it.
