Always cool to find silver coins in the trash!! But the sword is a ten buck Chinese made flea market junker. The wholesaler probably sold them for less than five bucks apiece in quantity.
A word of very serious warning from someone who practices Iaijutsu. Dont use that "sword" ever. Dont even swing it in the air. The tang on it is simple a welded on piece thin round stock.
every time you see a house-clean-out dumpster - you should check - most people who have a lot of stuff to clean out are in a real hurry - or complete morons - I wish I had started sooner myself....
