Definitely a first for me...human skull at yard sale

Who woulda guessed... and empty head is worth money.

I guess my teachers were wrong. I AM worth something!

This made me laugh! I occasionally keep a small "stash" of cash in the house and the last place i recently had it was in my nicest skull. The "container" is worth 4x the cash inside!

The price on this skull is ridiculous

Hirst's diamond skull sells for $100 million | Reuters

I think Sir Elton John bought it, or one with a similar price, for his partner some time ago.

Here is one of the skulls we have on display. I moved for better light in the picture but normally it's on a bookshelf with others throughout the house. This one even has a padded carrying case and was a desktop model for a plastic surgeon that repaired cleft paletes

Of all the odd things I own, I've never once checked the value of my skulls!! Ive got at least 3 of them sitting around in a closet somewhere. Maybe it's time I sell them off since they don't do much for me...

Three of them?? Ever get noises or bumps from the closet?.... Things come off the wall....

Just having old gold dental work I found at estate/garage sale gives me the "Willies"!

The only thingS that go bump in the night is our fat ass cat and me kicking it's food dish during a late bathroom visit

If dental gold makes you freak out, you wouldn't enjoy the book case full of articulated dentures I've done and have them displayed under glass domes like the one seen in this threads first post. I did them for Halloween one year and ended up never taking them down

I like the look and appearance of your glass domes and the thick and heavier wooden bases. Where do you get yours?

Thanks,
Bill

I think I just searched for them online but I've also picked them up at sales.
