Garbage picked silver! (with pics)

I have a few rental properties, A lot of times when tenants move out they leave stuff behind. I recently sold 5 Crown Royal bags on Ebay, that were left behind by a tenant.
In August a different tenant moved out. They left a few things in the attic, but most was in trash cans along side the house. The day before trash garbage day I went over to take out the trash. I looked in one can and saw a Crown Royal Bag. I reached in to pick it out and as I was picking it up the bag jingled. I could tell there were coins in it.
When I got home I checked out the coins. I ended up with $2.23 U.S clad and $1.88 Canadian. (Chase bank will trade Canadian for US at equal value) and $.25 in U.S.silver (1953)

Keep on Searching

Gotta love that silver garbage! Trash clad in a bag ain't bad either! Nice. Only thing a tenant has left behind for me was damage. Congratz
 

Nice! Just curious, what’s the value on Crown Royal bags?
 

$6.99 for four bags. I probably made $4.50 after fees/shipping.
