My old dentist in Berlin kept a pot full of old gold that he removed from patients mouths. He always asked them (he did me) if they wanted the old inlay and when they said no he kept it. Every 3-5 years recycled it and the amount back in the mid-90's was just under $10k each time. He put it in the bank for his son's college fund.

Should be worth a lot more these days...
