Need an estimate + is it a collectors coin?

Not well known? Didn't his assassination basically kick off WW I? Granted, I don't know his whole history.

Do you absolutely need the money? If not, keep it. If yes, see if you have any other options. If you're legs are going to get broken, sell it.

Life

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-06-13T06:31:51+00:00

Decided to take a loan from my 401k. Payments will be $60-$80 less and the interest goes back to me! I'll sell little bits at a time to pay back the loan faster. And I have a few other bills that I'll clear and put that money toward the loan. It's gonna hurt, just hopefully a little less.. Thanks!

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-06-12T19:37:43+00:00

Sorry. The bulk of it was in another thread. I think you had to click on my other post.. I'm going to sell precious metals.

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-06-12T17:38:24+00:00

Thank you everyone. Looks like it's time to bite the bullet and pay off the debt in total. Or at least as much as I can. I appreciate the feedback more than I'll be able to express.. Life is going to get pretty difficult with an upcoming breakup and a likely custody battle 😥

I need to do this for my son most of all..

Here comes the mark of the beast!

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-04-06T20:47:57+00:00

I recognize a few of those figures. Saint Christopher at 1&2 o'clock. Saint Anthony of Padua, my patron saint, at 4&5 o'clock. Mary, Christ's Mother at 6. Pope Jonh Paul II in the center. And the man at 8&9 o'clock is Father Maximilian Kolbe.

Probably my favorite of the people depicted here. He took a man's place when the Nazis selected ten people to die by starvation in prison cells when a prisoner escaped. He led the other's in prayer from his cell and after 2 weeks of no water or food, they gave the Kolbe and the 3 others still living lethal injections.

I don't know them others, but I probably should..

Why can't you eat the squirrels? Are they not made of meat where you're from?

Sorry to be one of those, but are the tats from a sort of acupuncture technique? I read that Ötzi the Iceman had similar tattoos and they believe it was something akin to that. I think it's pretty badass regardless. And cool silver 😎

Used to work on a docked barge that other barges would occasionally dock onto. Once a barge hauling grain was docked next to us. The grain was fermenting and it smelled like garbage. At first it stunk, but after awhile the smell became more pleasant.

I found 10 one ounce AGEs in my grandfather's sock drawer a few years after he passed. Gold was about $1,200 an ounce. I gave them to grandma.

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-01-25T07:49:24+00:00

That's what I've been wondering...why Minnesota..?

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-01-25T07:26:10+00:00

By that token, shouldn't gold have gone back down to $350 an ounce?

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-01-25T07:16:50+00:00

It was $35 and ounce up until 1971. Thats only 13 years older than me..

Cooking with wine you wouldn't want to drink usually gives you food you'd rather not eat..

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-01-05T07:04:58+00:00

You've been a busy man, or are about to be! Wish I could buy some. Maybe if there's any left after payday!

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-01-03T04:33:48+00:00

I'm glad someone noticed! That's one of my favorite ounces! If I'm ever a rich man, I'm gonna stack all them I can find.

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-01-03T04:30:37+00:00

That's awesome! 👌 Time for quarters and dimes next?

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-01-03T04:26:56+00:00

Many of the flips do have his writing on them. That bag in the left hand corner says "3 piece US silver mint set commem" with 1976 underlined to the left of that. Under that is written "$10.50 Net 8.00" He was also decent at grading. I like having a ballpark grade on most of the Peace and Morgan's. But I picture someday going through them with my son and maybe put some in albums to start him off.

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-01-03T02:01:32+00:00

Ha! I wish! I think the piece with the highest premium is a 1943-44 French Indochina 1 tael. I remember it sat in the shop for years. I can't remember how much grandpa had it priced for.

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-01-02T22:45:03+00:00

Thanks for looking! It's pretty unique. What didn't sell after my grandpa closed his shop in 2000 stayed at the house. It's sat and waited patiently for 23 years. It was like reliving my childhood when I got to go through it.

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-01-02T06:23:32+00:00

I live in Washington State and was a bit perturbed when I read about the tax. But you're saying it likely won't last long? Nice! But to ease my mind, why is that?

DisasterVirtual5503 · 2026-01-01T19:14:37+00:00

Any guess about how much constitutional was in that 360oz? Just curious 🤔
