Finally got out today for the first time in a long while. I think we hit 10 different yard sales, two estate sales and went to a preview for an estate auction which is tomorrow. We bought the majority of everything at one of the estate sales. Not pictured below are two old wood fishing lures, an old Munwill watch, couple more old plates, old metal one gallon gas can with spout, couple hummingbird feeders, NOS leather bike seat with the two big springs underneath, couple hats. Spent less than $100 total today.

First, can someone help me with this hallmark? Not sure if its silver or plated. Its a big silver plate and says "Billfish classic tournament, 1977 Ladies Classic, 2nd place team". Picked this up for $1. Figured even if its plated that its worth something being an old fishing tournament trophy.

Got four zippo lighters for 50 cents each. The crop dusting one has no name on it but thought it was cool advertising anyways. In order they are Zippo, no name, Continental Japan, storm king

This was the expensive buy of the day but I think it was a good deal. Xbox 360 lot of 21 games, controller,microphone. All for $60. These have been confiscated by my kids. SO, guess Ill only get to sell the ones they don't want, lol.

I bought a couple of old plates even though I don't know much about them, but they were all 25 cents so figured I didn't have much to lose. The Royal Winton plate, I cant find this exact one so not sre what its worth. Also this stack of Hunter Laughlin saucers for 50 cent total.

I can't see the photo well enough to accurately depict the letters. A better pic would do wonders. It looks like an a c inside a rounded triangle with a Patriarchal cross and an I inside an octagon? Also, I think you'll be pleased when you research the sold prices for the Mickey Mouse watch. Bradley is one of the better names for them.
