Yeah! Idk if the $15k total included the mystery property deed & rifles. Probably not...considering it would be a very cheap property with 800 silver coins deducted from that figure.

At first I thought it meant $15,000 in face value - but it was the "estimated" value of the collection, not the face value. Still, a nice find and I hope all those poor lonely coins find a good home in a collectors hands soon.

I laughed a little harder at this comment than I probably should have.
