Estate mystery treasure box unboxing ! What’s inside???

[@TuckerSP2011]

You're right! You have found more treasure in the box than they have ever found on Oak Island! 😄😄😄

[@karenstanley2506]

I would have patience to go thru every piece that is the box. That is why I love watching what you find.

[@sallyforth10001]

Could you ask Melissa to go through the jewelry on camera for those of us interested in the jewelry? Great video, as usual.

[@BlazingSadles]

Yes that would be nice!

[@elliepascoe5954]

Yes, yes please!!

[@brendasoler4759]

Would love to see an update of the vintage jewelry pieces! I’m like a crow; I love sparkly things! LOL

[@K80420]

Wish you guys had an online shop for your items! I love your videos.

[@StephBer1]

That was such a cool box. I love things like that. The person may have been a flyer or was also a collector because I doubt the same person or family had 3 or more "Service Offered Service Refused (?)" pins. But I loved the box. And I love untangling jewellery. Don't ask me why, I just do. It's so satisfying when it's finally all free. Like finishing a puzzle. 😄

[@cathyblackhall3448]

StephBer1 Me too,when I go to my mums she always asks me to undo her chains lol.

[@CuriosityIncorporated]

working to resolve the problem with it not working.. will hopefully post soon

[@BobOgden1]

It is working here in Oz now

[@suzannejensen275]

Alex The large white pearl straight pin is a hat pin. I have some that were my mother's and grandmother's. I really enjoyed looking at the contents of this box. Look into the value of the costume jewelry it has made a big come back here in the States and some of the older pieces are worth a lot. I would've loved to been able to sit there with you and gone through the box. What some people think is just old junk l really love. I still have rings we got from the gumball machines back in the 60s and a set of plastic winds received from flying on Delta Airlines. I'm the one that would untangle the necklaces I've become very good at it over the years. I'm so glad the video finally played for me. My Grandmother had the newspapers from WWII with a picture of Hitler on the front page, the crash of the Hindenburg and the picture of the plane that crash on their farm in Vermont sadly the person that was staying at my house didn't look inside the bag that was in the box she just thought it was just papers that had been used to pack something and they put them in the trash. I wish I would've put them in a safety deposit box a long with money and jewelry.

[@virginiavarble7818]

I'm so in awe of your life! You get to own so many cool things. Things I can only dream about!

[@lianelinner9594]

My birthday is Dec. 8, 1944. That paper is way valuable. I love watching you go through treasure boxes. The little wooden doll is from the 40's or 50's. I wish I had all the old tangled broken jewelry. I make jewelry from recycled beads and chains. I love watching your VLOG. Look forward to it everyday.

I love these types of boxes, I can spend hours looking thru and don't care if I find big $$$

That would be so amazing to go thru. To admire the sparklies, to touch the history of the pieces, to see the workmanship and glimpse into a kinder, gentler, more meaningful time. Ppl show goodwill jewelry jar unboxings...our goodwill doesn't do that....lol, I'm a sucker for grab bags and mystery boxes!! Thank you for sharing.

[@jeanined9060]

Video plays now! Thank you! I’m a jewelry maker & just wanted to comment on a few of the gorgeous jewelry pieces you found! The first lady’s gold ring with red stones you picked up could be rubies but could also be garnets. The second, larger gold ring with red stones look more like rubies ( on my screen anyway). The silver ring (men’s, I think?) with the largish blue stone that has lots of sparkles inside it? That blue stone is called blue goldstone. It’s a man made material. Copper inclusions make it so sparkly. Hope that helps! Thanks for your wonderful videos!

[@amandabrown3566]

The sterling ring with the sparkling blue stone is called "blue sandstone"....

[@theresanovak4199]

Lots of valuable stuff. I would thoroughly enjoy untangling, sorting, testing and cleaning, researching and labeling that jewelry. Large pearl stick pin was for a hat, likely late 1880s or1900s. Marvelous!

[@TheHunabku]

sorted now, I can see....what a great time going through all that!!

[@annwithaplan9766]

That Shanook flying school could have been from Shanook AFB, Illinois. I was born there. : ) My dad was an AF pilot. I had an aunt named Hazel, too. That Siam jewelry looks familiar. My dad brought some back with similar designs from there as well. Could be there were several men in that family who became pilots, or they swapped emblems and such with other pilots they encountered? Those swimmers patches I believe came from the Red Cross.

[@debbiehaakenson2357]

To keep necklaces entangle, unclasp chain, slip one end into drinking straw, then reclasp. You can store them so much neater this way, able to see which necklace it is, totally not tangled

[@susieh6103]

The sparkly blue stone ring is a moon stone ring. The are often in a copper color for the stone and legend has it that monks, when working with stain glass had an accident and copper shavings fell into the glass creating the stone. Not sure on total story accuracy but when I was creating gemstone jewelry and ordered my regulars of garnet and lapis lazuli, I picked up some of the moonstone and was told the legend

I like your videos, and I really don't care about tripod versus no tripod. I'd rather see an impromptu video than have you wait until you have all your equipment. One of the things I like best is that your videos do not seem to be "rehearsed".

I totally agree.

[@sharondonelow5364]

[@daniellezepess]

Video is working again! Hooray!!! What a fascinating box of treasures! Perhaps that eternity charm goes with the memorial locket? The Romanian lei (singular: leu) look to be relatively new, and the man on the notes, Nicolae Iorga, was a celebrated late-19th/early-20th century historian. And yes, that is one impressive beard! Fun Fact: my father was born in Romania in '37. During the war, he had a baby sister who 'disappeared' following an occupation of their family home by a German commander & his mistress (who apparently doted on the baby.) Dad thinks the commander's mistress may have taken the baby with her when they left... so my dad may still have a little sister somewhere in the world! After hearing about the Alex-Heather reunion, he's interested to see if DNA tracking can help him find her and/or her children. ❤️

Min. 9:55 is Erasmus of Rotterdam (Capital of The Netherlands). Born in the Netherlands in 1466 and passed in Basel, Switzerland (both Roman Empire at that time). He was a Dutch Christian humanist and considered the greatest scholar of the Northern Renaissance. Was an important person called "Prince of Humanists" and "The Crowning Glory Of Christian Humanists". Used humanist techniques to prepare important new Latin and Greek Editions of the New Testament.
