No NOT animals!
But wifey and I went to several antique malls today after Church. Because I collect Morgan and Seated US silver dollars.
I found two, worth the money. One 1878 Morgan (1st year of production) I bartered it down to $28 (they were asking $36) in VF condition. And another 1921 Morgan (common date) but in mint condition for $22 (asking $28) at two different antique malls. We hit three malls total.
Wifey found a beautiful real CUT Crystal Glass bowl with feet, about 8" in diameter. For $125 and I got em down to $85. Perfect for our dresser. It has a good ring to it, when thumped. It looks like probably from the 1880's-1890's? It's old.
So besides Colt 1911's and Smith Revolvers and men's jewelry. US gold and silver coins are my other bad habits. She says sometimes, I look like Mr T?
Wifey collects old cut glass and old mine cut diamond jewelry and my money! LOL! She Loves old diamond stick pins from the turn of the century. And me and the kids and grandson always try to find a unique old diamond stick pin for her birthday or Christmas.
But I guess when you get old, you collected stuff, is what you do. So the kids can fight over it when your gone. I'm not leaving a will, but three large cans of mace? We'll see who wins!
It got me thinking, what else do people collect on the forum?
I remember that Member Dick Burg said 8-10 years ago, that he collected very very old spoons and forks.
I'm thinking this might be a cool option for bikers taking that "last" ride...
Heater isn't good, unless you can find an illegal gas heater to add.The more I need to mess with plastic computer controlled modern technology, the more I want to get a restored model A.
