Rock Collections
A lovely collection of rocks, including quartz, obsidian, and amethyst, as well as all of your basic minerals, is kept in that drawstring pouch. The stash, which is popular with kids, is unquestionably a treasure.
However, if you’re looking for real value, rocks like these aren’t hard to come by. For example, an amethyst isn’t worth much until it’s polished and shaped into a gemstone and set in a lovely ring. Even after it has been prepared for jewelry, the price is usually under $10.
Coins From the Franklin Mint
The Franklin Mint sells money to collectors. Coin pressers sell collectibles such as gold-plated state quarters and Harley-Davidson silver dollars. Since 1964, the Franklin Mint has been selling coins, but not to Americans.
The Franklin Mint is unrelated to the U.S. Mint. The Franklin Mint coins are beautiful to look at, but even as a collection, they are worthless. If you try to cash them in, they are worthless.
