    This got me thinking – have you ever found a really old / rare / valuable coin?

    Have you ever found some other rare and/or collectible object such as:

    – A Van Gogh at a garage sale

    – A real diamond at a costume jewelry sale

    – A first-edition rare book such as a Poe

    – An ancient comic book

    – Antique furniture

    – A old letter signed by a famous historical figure

    – A buried or underwater item of interest

    – A clam with a pearl in it (on the beach of course, we know they’re not kosher)

    – Etc.

    Tell us your stories!

    I once found alot of comic books and I sold them for $500 (I could have gotten more had I known what they were actually worth)

    Finding G-d’s Torah. That was a real find. And my children and my children’s children will feel the same way.

    The best things that I have found in very recent years are the joys of attending shul and Shabbat. Along the way, I made a whole new circle of wonderful friends. What could be better to have in one’s life but shul, Shabbat and friends. Oh, and of course, Torah.

    ICOT: I know you are looking for more “tangible” items. I shall stimulate my memory over the weekend and post again – with the topic you intended. Shabbat Shalom.

    Once a thread’s been turned loose, it can go in any direction it wants.

    The first part of your post is just fine.
