I don't frequent this board too much, so I'm going to play Scully on this one and assume you guys know what this is.

>find this for a couple of dollars

What is it, /x/? Some kind of a lucky charm or talisman? As far as I can tell it's just a regular quarter encased in a thick layer of resin

I can't imagine it's valuable, I'm a coin collector and there's cheap cases you can pop your coins into.

I also found something else similar from another sale that my father threw oit because he thought it was cursed.

It is literally a quarter set in epoxy. Nothing more. People do this all the time as an arts and crafts thing. They'll make frames, coasters, table tops, etc etc.

The similar thing I bought you'll just have to take my word for I guess, it was a few years ago and I don't have pictures.

>rummage through box of stuff
>clear acrylic cube covered with thin black paint-like layer
>wipe it off on one side, there's gears, looks a little heat-damaged
>ask owner about it
>says hes brother made it in the seventies with brass gears because it looked cool, they found it in the house fire after his place burned down

At the time I was in the Scouts, and went off camping. My father isn't really superstitious, but we recently watched that Breaking Bad episode where Hank found the acrylic cube with the metal teeth in it (roughly the same size) and then everything started to go wrong for him, until he threw it in the river.

So I go off to camp and my dad says random spooky shit was happening. Lightbulbs breaking, floorboards creaking.

>goes for a bike ride
>brings it with him
>almost hit by a car
>tire flattens on a nail
>throws it off the dock of a nearby lake
>kid gets struck by fucking lightning on this dock a month later
>lake drained year later

I looked for it, but I couldn't find anything.

It might be violin rosin? Nothing /x/ related for sure
>>
What makes you think this is /x/ related? Any feels, etc? Or just that it's something set in epoxy like something else set in epoxy that spooped your pops?

It's an oversized Les Paul volume/tone knob. Watch out for giants or yetis rocking out around rural GA.
