First, I'd ask myself why I might want to sell a piece of historical significance...especially for my family. Have you thought about holding on to the items and passing them along to a family member (perhaps a son or daughter) someday? The only reason I bring this up is because I sold off some family items during a time when I was in need of money. Now, I have two sons who would absolutely LOVE to have them to preserve our family history. I regret what I did and would find another way to get the money if I was as wise then as I am now. Good Luck! The Coach WOW! First, I’d ask myself why I might want to sell a piece of historical significance…especially for my family.

My grandfather was a past master of the masonic lodge. he passed away in March and then in June someone robbed my house and stole the two rings from the Masons. I am devastated. I would give anything to have it back. Please dont let that happen to you. Please dont sell something like that! please.

And there's no such thing as 33rd degree. Don’t sell it, donate it to your local masonic chapter. And there’s no such thing as 33rd degree.
