So Sr, managed to find a pot of gold over here in Memphis. Three tins of Frog Morton blends regular, across the pond and on the bayou that are 2012 and 2013. Two Peterson billiards and a tin of rattray's 3 Higgins. The wife also got three nice cigars and I paid $120 for everything. Two Petersons were $24 a piece and the frogs were all under $10. The dude owns a cigar shop and said he hasn't had a pipe customer in 5 years. When I bought it he said he just wanted to get rid of it and to "not bring it back" gold mine found and emptied.

I located the haul, but the funds weren’t there. Because my son loves me I ended up with a Peterson SHANNON 107 and a beautiful tin with a suit wearing frog sitting on a log, y’all might recognize it. Thank you son, it’s been an awesome Father’s Day and Birthday this year.

That was what I would call “ a Royal Jackpots “! Congratulations on your once in a lifetime find, you were in the right place at the right time👌👍. What were the odds! Enjoy your new pipes and tobacco’s in good health!!! You have an idea how old the Pete’s are?

Thank you son, it’s been an awesome Father’s Day and Birthday this year. Your a lucky man to have a very thoughtful son. This past Father’s Day I received a phone call from my son saying “ Happy Father’s Day Dad, we are on our way to an ocean beach “. My last Birthday I got a “ Happy Birthday Dad “! Oh, and I live there right now!!! It’s not that he doesn’t have a good income either. It is what it is....so I have been told by other family members.

It is nice when a deal comes your way, nice score!
I dream for the day ....to go to a flea market and discover someones grandpa's trunk filled with cutter top tins for 50 cents apiece. I doubt that will happen though since I regularly see people posting beat up empty Prince Albert tins, priced as though they were salvaged from a sunken Spanish shipwreck.
