That’s cool. I want to travel to the Canadian Northern islands someday and see the rocks there, which are likely that old. Some deposits on Michigan’s upper peninsula also date back to the Hadean, apparently.
Aren’t most(all?) rocks billions of years old? Are we making new rocks?
Rocks can grow baby rocks that grow mini rocks.
We are in areas of high volcanism!
I was in Iceland a few months ago, and in some areas the rocks are only tens of years old. There are entire plains of lava flows that are only a few thousand years old. (Same for Hawaii, too.)
Great-grandfathers watch. It doesn’t run anymore but I still love to keep it.
I don’t know if you’ve looked into it or not, but you might be surprised at how cheap some watch repairs are.
Not worth it and have more pressing financial problems.
My house was built in '53
Coins, I suppose. I have some from the late 19th century so nothing crazy like the Roman stuff, although I’d love to have some of those ancient ones.
Now go to the museum and have Blathers assess it.
My birth certificate ☺️
A Sheaffer Balance fountain pen that I bought and restored, I believe it’s from somewhere around 1934. A few fountain pens that are certainly old but of unknown date as well.
Runner up would be my house built in the early 50’s.

Ooooh, lovely!

My house. Just the house.
Some old things I own:
- A top I used to wear in school which I haven’t thrown away because it still fits me and is in good condition. I have even worn it in recent times. It’s close to 30 years old.
- Last year I finally purchased a new laptop to replace my old one that I had been using since 2009.
- I own a piece of clothing belonging to my grandma that she used to wear to parties. I wore it for a function in October. I don’t know exactly how old it is, probably purchased in 1960s or 1970s.
1855 handbook from the freemasons detailing their rituals, imagery, ranks, and more.
Probably my house? Think it was built in 1928.
Me too, 1925 here.
