I remember, after he passed, sorting through coins that my grandfather had coffee cans full of in his closet. Coolest ones I remember were a couple silver dollars from 1796 or 1798. Felt like I was holding history.
It is really cool to think about the history, if it could only talk. I got into cast iron a number of years ago, collecting Griswold, Wapak, Erie and others. Amazing that I've found, bought and restored skillets, dutch ovens and other items that were made in the late 1800's and I still cook with them today!
