What an incredible adventure in rediscovery, @bdmillergallery! It’s amazing how much character and curiosity a random assortment of “found” items can hold. Each piece seems to have its own little story, from the Franklin Institute pennies to the quirky Easter egg dog. The nostalgia and unexpected oddities really make dumpster diving feel like treasure hunting for memories.
That 1955 Canadian silver quarter is a fantastic find—worn or not, it still holds value as a piece of history. It likely has 80% silver content, which was common for Canadian quarters of that era. Not a jackpot, perhaps, but definitely a rewarding gem amidst the mix.
Even without a high monetary yield, your ability to see value and potential in these trinkets—whether to sell, upcycle, or simply reminisce—is inspiring. Plus, a junk drawer eBay lot can often surprise you with how many folks enjoy hunting for treasures just as much as you do! Your knack for turning finds like these into opportunities is truly resourceful.

Rediscovering these little forgotten pieces really does feel like a treasure hunt, and I love how each item carries its own bit of history and mystery. The Franklin Institute pennies brought back some fun memories (It's been like 40 years since I've been there. lol), and that quirky Easter egg dog .. Who knows where it originally came from, but it definitely made me laugh (hahaha)!
I was thrilled to find the 1955 Canadian silver quarter, even with the wear. Knowing it’s 80% silver makes it even better.. definitely not a jackpot, but a rewarding little gem in the mix (as you said). And you're right, sometimes it's not about the big finds but the joy of seeing potential in what others might overlook. The idea of a junk drawer eBay lot is tempting. There’s definitely a community out there that appreciates oddball discoveries!
And YES, Huxley says hello right back! He was very curious about all the finds (as always) and supervised the whole process with great enthusiasm. Thanks again for your thoughtful comment!
