Happened to pick up this IH Crankshaft yesterday. Do they hold any particular value?

Juliet's.

I am curious if they are any more special than I think. JG serial number (JG009265).

I have owned them from new. They were a graduation gift from my boss at the bicycle shop I worked at and we sold Oakley. I believe the JG leads us to believe these are 1st gen, but the second release of 1999. They were gifted to me in 2001 when I was told I could have any pair in the case.

Years ago I was around Oakley Forum and received a lot of help selling Oakley stuff I had, and items that belonged to my old boss/friend. He had a lot of show room type items. At that time, I also received advice on where to send my Juliets for refinishing and I did just that but asked them to leave the serial number intact. I also stopped by another friend's bicycle shop and using his Oakley account, we ordered the last set of lenses Oakley showed in stock in a color I would want (Tungsten Iridium). I don't know if it was the end of them making Juliet lenses or maybe it was just low inventory, I don't know. I was also able to get ear socks and nose pieces.

These have been special occasion sunglasses their entire life and have not seen a lot of use. The refinish is because I was young and dumb and in probably 2001 I decided to polish the stems so they would have a two-tone look.

About the box... Sadly, when I was gifted them, I was given the incorrect box. I have the box and coin for T004101, another pair of Juliets we had in stock at the time. The coin is correct since it is Juliet 1999.

Thanks for any advice!
