A true good luck story!

I took a friend of mine out to yard sales today who wants to learn to sell on eBay for some extra income as he builds his business. His first time going to them ever. I stop at one lady's house and buy all of her jewelry and she has a jewelry box sitting on the table. He picks it up and shakes it. She said there's something stuck inside of it but she has no idea what it is. He was given it and she couldn't get it out so she was going to sell it for three dollars. It sounded like there was a key inside of the jewelry box. He didn't want to spend the three dollars so I gave him three bucks to buy the jewelry box. We get in the car and he breaks it open. I kid you not this is what was inside of it. I just have no idea what kind coin it is! I could not believe it.

Sweet. Thank you very much I actually posted it in the yard sale form and this on by accident.

Good lesson for your friend - if you aren't willing to gamble $3 on an old jewelry box then maybe this game isnt for him!
