Pictured is a coin that reads Good for One Fare, on one side and United Electric Railways Company on the other. UER was a public transit provider in Providence, RI. A distinctive feature o this token is the star-shaped cutout in its center. These coins represent a bygone era of public transportation when physical tokens were commonly used instead of modern electronic payment methods like smart cards or mobile apps.
Anne was going through old coin jars when she found this token. She also found numerous other old coins that were typically going for a few bucks on eBay, when she found a 1911 Canadian penny. Looking that coin up, one of the entries came back at $100,000. Momentarily she thought that she had struck it rich, but that valuation was for a special, limited test run and not the coin in her hand. Still, per eBay $3 represents an increase of 30,000%.
Only a few more days remain until our departure east. My goal is to leave the house in a state that in showable. Exterior power washing today, with windows to follow after our departure and hopefully a deep cleaning after that. What we cannot ling in the next couple of days, will go into closets to hide until after the showing. Other than the pile of stuff waiting at the front door to go out, sheets over furniture and art for sun protection and the primary bedroom, things are looking good. We still have a lot more stuff to fling or sort, but overall things are looking good. We might actually be able to sell this place yet.
