What's Trending in Vintage & Antiques — Week of September 28

Clip-on earrings, pantry jars, pocket change, and nursery plates all moved this week. The clues sit in the wire, the lid, the toning, and the printed circus scene.

Earrings — 4× vs. last week

Found this week: Weiss Clip-On Earrings

Gold-tone clip-on earrings with glass and rhinestones set the jewelry pace, led by a twisted wire Weiss pair.

Photograph the front and the clip back. The twisted wire and rhinestone clusters are the scan hook, not a smooth stud.

Canning jars — 3× vs. last week

Found this week: Atlas E-Z Seal Glass Canning Jar — Est. $21

Canning jars sealed up around an Atlas glass jar with a metal lightning closure.

Check the embossed glass and the wire bail. The closure hardware is the detail that identifies this pantry jar.

Coins — up vs. last week

Found this week: 1973-D Kennedy Half Dollar Coin — Est. $50

Coins turned over, and the example is a copper-nickel Kennedy half with orange-brown toning.

Lay the coin flat and shoot both faces. The date, mint mark, and uneven toning are what the scan needs.

Plates — on the rise

Found this week: Hazel-Atlas Pink Circus Divided Baby Plate — Est. $23

Plates stacked up around a pink glass divided baby plate printed with circus graphics.

Photograph the face and the rim. The divided wells and circus print are the clues, along with any molded maker mark.
