Checked out an estate sale today outside of Knoxville. First one I've ever been to. Tons of antiques, artwork (a few authentic Dali etchings that were wayyyyyy out of my league price wise) and some coins. Nothing super special in the way of coins, but I picked up 3 rolls of Kennedy's and a roll of Ike's at face value. There wasn't any silver in the rolls, but practically every single coin is in mint state. Looks like the guy wrapped them up 40 years ago and never touched them again. Also picked up a couple of Standing Liberty quarters at just above spot, and an old maple syrup jar with the Buffalo nickel design on front. Figured I'd use it to store my dateless Buffalo nickels.       |

GREAT finds! The bottle and the Ikes are the best.

Ha I had to do a double take when I walked by the bottle. Knew I recognized that profile lol. Bottom of the bottle says "Log Cabin Maple Syrup". I've seen their little glass cabin shaped bottles but never one of these.

I failed to mention the jar earlier. Yes, it is pretty slick! Difficult for me to look past the Eisenhower dollars though.  |
