What's the value of the memories?

Also just saying, 24 crayons is really pretty good - you can do a lot with that many different colors.

The memories are priceless! To anyone reading this, finding .07g of gold by yourself without paying $10 for it is pretty awesome. Anytime I find gold in the pan, I say "oh shit no way?" The excitement is always the same and I want to find more gold
