Yesterday's Ship Has Sailed in Treasure Hunt

YESTERDAY'S SHIP HAS SAILED - ALL COINS ON BOARD WERE FOUND. 

INCLUDED IN YESTERDAY'S LOOT:

1. Pan Metals 5-gram .999 copper bar from the Seven Wonders of the World series (featuring the Roman Colosseum) is about $5.00 to $10.00. The raw value of 5 grams of copper is mere cents, so market value relies entirely on its collectible design and mystery-box packaging. 
2. The selected region displays an H.E. Harris 2" x 3" Snaplock Coin Case featuring a World War II "Flying Tiger" theme designed to house 1943 wartime steel cent coinsThis specific 1943 Wartime Steel Cents 3-coin display set typically sells for $10 to $25

Interesting Note: The Million-Dollar Exception: You may have heard rumors of 1943 pennies selling for hundreds of thousands of dollars. This only applies to an extremely rare transitional copper error. In 1943, roughly 20 coins were accidentally struck using leftover copper planchets instead of steel. If your pennies stick to a magnet, they are standard steel cents.

3. A World War II Japanese occupation one peso bill from the Philippines (commonly called "Mickey Mouse money") is generally worth $2 to $5 if circulated. Crisp, uncirculated condition notes can sell for $10 to $20, while rare series variations with specific block letter combinations can occasionally reach $28. Because they were printed in massive quantities, they are common collectibles rather than high-value treasures
4. A typical circulated 1964 silver quarter is worth between $11.50 and $12.00, heavily dictated by the current spot price of silver. Because 1964 was the last year the U.S. Mint produced quarters with 90% silver, even heavily worn or damaged coins hold significant baseline value
