<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gauntlettgems, post: 2148622, member: 6421&quot;]I also bought a box of old souvenir spoons for $10.&nbsp; There was at least 60 of them and I knew I could make some money&nbsp; In the box was a Chicago dog tag, yes for an actual pet, from the late 1800s.&nbsp; I knew nothing about it and was happy to put it up for $29 on auction.&nbsp; It blew up overnight and I got almost $900 for it!&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Then my second surprise, in the same box, was a very large suffragette pendant in 14k yellow gold.&nbsp; It was almost 2&quot; and had the right color combination of stones&nbsp;&nbsp; I had no idea&nbsp; A friend on another board recognized it&nbsp; I sold it for $1475!</p><p><br /></p><p>I had not seen either of these pieces in the lot when I bought them.&nbsp; I love to hear these stories.&nbsp; Thank you for sharing!</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=37]@verybrad[/USER] I&#039;m off to look up that vase!&nbsp; I have never heard of them[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
