This weekends flea market and yard sale finds.

The flea market yesterday was a little disappointing as all I found was one elks club drink chip and some dice. However today was better. I asked everyone if they had any jewelry or old coins. One guy went into his house and pulled out a small box of coins. I picked out one silver dollar, half dollar and quarter and one really nice goodie - an silver 8 reale(?) in a necklace holder. I made him an offer but after all the work he said he wanted to get another opinion on what they were worth. Oh well maybe he will still come thru for me. Then a little later I used the same line and one guy said that he had some casino tokens. I was disappointed since most tokens are not worth buying. He said they were the special $10 tokens! We went in his house and came out with 19 of them. I even managed to get them for a little under face value! The sterling charm and necklace I got for a buck. Nice day and I had to go out anyway to take care of the daughter cats downtown. I spent 4+ hours rummaging my way to her house.
