Lee Harvey Oswald's Coffin for Sale: Rotten Wooden Coffin Should Could go as High as $100,000

What is a wooden, rotten coffin worth? Not much, unless of course it has a notoriety about it.

The coffin of Lee Harvey Oswald is for sale through auction, and it's expected to generate up to $100,000. What you would do with a patsy's coffin is beyond me, but it didn't take ling to get bids.

LOS ANGELES -- It's one of the most ghoulish - and overlooked - American artifacts of the 20th century: A modest wooden coffin stashed in a storage room of the Baumgardner Funeral Home in Fort Worth, Texas. Few people had any idea that the rotting wooden box, with its rust-coated metal ornamentation, held for nearly 18 years the body of Lee Harvey Oswald, the man who shot President John F. Kennedy to death in 1963.
