[QUOTE="daveydempsey, post: 13276335, member: 22"]I was doing my usual late morning dog walk today when the guy who used to help me with house clearances called to say he was pricing one up around the corner and he was unsure about the value of the numerous small items, could I attend and give some advice. The relatives in the house made it quite clear they would rather sell the contents and only pay for the rubbish removal. Obviously I was not interested in any large items of furniture, pottery, books etc but there were boxes of costume jewellery, coins, medals flatware etc. I picked out what I would be interested in and they asked me to make an offer. I got all that is pictured below for £400, only thing is I was not carrying money, I had to walk back home and get some cash and then return. Top left 4 pieces of mainly scrap gold that scraps at £210 Sterling silver Crown £35 5 other pieces of Sterling Silver, Christening spoon, Canada lapel pin, sugar nips, silver Chinese brooch, scrap Sterling ring. An Ivory & brass intaglio seal with a small box for the ink pad The seal features either an angel or cherub WWI RAF Cap Badge Trio of WWI Medals 6 Sterling (butter knives) One of the items is worth around £500 on its own :rolleyes: [ATTACH=full]562326[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]562327[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
