Does that say $54 ?

Anyway... love the part where the gold 8 is worth $20... lol

Sheesh today that same coin would be worth a ton depending on date and strike.

They just don't make "boney" clay pots like they used to. Would that be fine bone China?

I imagine they just added up the total found, but someone had to know that in 1891 it was worth more...
