Greetings Gorm,

In the past 3 years, I have seen things like spears, a silver candlelabra,
chail mail coif, and 12 arrows, to old leather gloves and 3 rolls of duct
tape.  The equipment that I have seen is often used but servicable.  There
has been a fair share of things like hand made favor, wine, beer, corigals,
and so forth.  There are many things where a fighter may choose and then
present it to a loved one.  Mostly they are things that are used therefore
inexpensive.  Erica was right.

Thanks

The Eógan
