Older Properties
Liverpool used to be a major city in England, in Victorian times. Some of the houses that still stand, are lovely houses. Most have been turned into flats now, as they are 'considered' too big, for modern day living.
The wealth of the people that lived in these houses, was quite considerable, and where it has gone now, I don't know. Some of the families may have moved out of Liverpool, when the vast amount of money, to be made from shipping 'dried up'. Liverpool is still a thriving city, and lots of cargo still comes through it, but the wealth that came with it, is no longer there!
There are probably some nice antiques still to be found, in the Liverpool area of England.

Unfortunately, the museums can't buy everything. Yesterday is now history. If the museums stored everything, we'd need lots of museums. Nice that this guy has lent them to the museum, though.

Coffers
It must be difficult to date coffers. Many are made out of oak, and probably date back centuries. Sometimes you are lucky to get a date on one, but this could have been added later.

Collecting Antiques
I don't think there are many better ways, of connecting with our past, than buying antiques. There are many different types of antiques to collect eg. china, furniture, silver, gold, coins etc.
Some of the materials used are hazardous today, and so one needs to be careful about buying, handling and storing these items. Always seek advice from a suitable professional.
