Old School College Clothes

We mentioned vintage college pennants, but there is another type of tertiary education-themed item that people seem to think will sell for a lot. Old school college clothes are hoarded by some folks who think that people would happily pay a lot of money to imitate those rich or brilliant enough to go to universities like Harvard or Oxford. Sadly (or obviously), few people want to dress up like a Harvard alumnus from the mid-20th century. Surprise, surprise…

Wheat Pennies

Wheat pennies are another historical special coin that Americans went crazy over more than a century ago. For those dedicated vintage penny collectors’ information, wheat pennies will only sell for a high amount if they happened to have some unusual minting error. Otherwise, you probably won’t get much for them, even if you have a large pile of the discs. Something like the “Holy Grail” of wheat pennies, the 1909-S VDB, will earn you a handsome sum.
