I found this interesting piece at a thriftstore. I don't see any markings on it, and I'm curious as to what the main stone and the faceted one might be. I don't know if it's a pendant or was it to be a pin of some sort, and any thoughts if this might be custom made? It's quite heavy as well...
Good afternoon, everyone. I’m a 16 year old junior, and I’ve bought lots of vintage dress clothes and some cufflinks off of eBay. I purchased this pair a few days ago. I’m quite curious if the stone is semi-precious or of quality, and if it was worth the $24 price tag. Either way, they’re...
First hunt this year!! Haven't been detecting for a long time. So pumped that my first night out was a success!!
Any guess on age for this vintage looking silver ring? And what about this button?
Please comment if you have info. Thanks!
Hello! Been AGES since I've posted. Scored 25 cent silver spoon at a thrift store. Possibly 2 silver ones. Can anyone help me identify the small Dutch one? Is it silver or not? Has markings but not sure. I know the other is (even though it looks goldish for some reason) because it says Sterling...
Hello! I was lucky enough to find this chunky 16 gram silver bracelet at work. Unfortunately the customer didn't come back for it for 3 weeks. So I got to take it home. It looks homemade...hammered. no markings. 100% sure it's silver but not positive if it's only plated, or soild sterling. Any...
I recently acquired 10-15 pieces of what I was told is Medieval jewelry. Some of it I can guess what it is. I have no clue what this piece is. Has anyone ever seen anything like what’s in the photo?
Found this brass & glass ring in the yard of a 200 year old house in VT. The site has yielded items from as far back as the 1700s (eg, 1751 KGII halfpenny; pewter buttons & spoons) but mostly 1800s. The ring was about 10?-12? down. It?s crudely made. Nothing is symmetrical, not even the facets...
Well, the last one died shortly after birth, so here we make a new baby.
40 years ago I had a great time in the Bahamas. A lot has happened since then. Probably I would not recognize the old places if I visited today.
Some places might have changed less than others, like Great Isaak Key. When...
I think this pendant is vintage, it came from a property that was cleared after the owner had passed who had no relatives to collect their belongings. The diamonds to me look to be of very high quality.
I can not find anything when I try to look up the marks on it.
It has a 10K stamp to the...
My Grama gave us a ton of junk jewelry in several bags. I excitedly went through them all and was rewarded with two treasures- a 10k broken chain (weighs less then a gram, I don't have a jewelry scale), and a 925 silver earring!!! This is my second gold I've ever found. Also found these two cool...
I should have posted this yesterday but I'm new here and found my first ring yesterday! It's missing the stone, but I'm pretty sure it's sterling silver since it says 925 on it. I found on the grass on the side of the walking trail that goes around Lake Nokomis.
I have found this necklace in a lot.
I am relatively new to all this, and I am confused because of a discussion on facebook. Is this hang tag Trifari as I already thought it is. Or Karen Lynne? Also I Need confirmation is this piece actual or a knock off? I am having doubts now because, No...
I found this charm while detecting, and I am wondering if anyone has seen something like it... frankly, I am just confused as to what it even is. It looks like a bundle of logs tied together, or maybe some kind of flower bundle? It has the remains of a "Taiwan" sticker on the back, and it was a...
Update: All of the 14k Gold, 10k Gold, and Sterling Silver are SOLD. There is some costume jewelry left. If anyone wants it for $15.00 + $3.00 SHIPPING, send me a PM.
Hey Y'all,
I'm selling my MD jewelry and have listed it below basically in order as shown in the photo. Be sure to...
Found this silver medical bracelet at a yard sale and asked the lady how much she wanted. She said a buck so I got it. She had coin books there and I asked if she had coins for sale. She said she'd maybe put them out next sale... so I'll be stopping by there the next time i see a sale!!! (Lucky...
Symbols on Gold colored Piece found Metal Detecting
Any idea what organization this represents, what the symbols mean & age? I haven't been able to find a reference online. From what i can find is not KOC, Freemasons, or any i can find.
It's about the size of a nickel, but thicker. I'm...
I found this spoon at a garage sale for .25 cents. It was all tarnished and ugly when I got it. All it says on the bottom is COMMUNITY. Is it silver or just plated? If it's only plated, is it worth anything?
I found this bracelet at a playground with my detector. It doesn't have markings but...
FINALLY!!! Haven't found anything silver for a looooong time. Been doin' school and then hurt my thumb playing golie so haven't got out hardly any this month. Finally got out for a 45 min. spin and found this silver bracelet, 76 cents, junk, and a button. First beep a dime, second.... SILVER...
Hello. I found this thing at a middle school by a basketball court by my house. I believe it's silver... not totally sure. WHAT IS IT?! It might be part of an earring or necklace or something.
So I posted an add for the ring(s) I found at the park. It's a small park so I just said the address of the street. I didn't write that I metal detect or that I found two rings... the last thing I want is someone detecting my park!!! I didn't describe them either. Someone replied; (I'll name...
Oh my goodness!!! I found the hockey ring yesterday, and today I found ANOTHER about a foot away from the hockey ring!!! What kind of stone is it? What do you think it's safe worth? it okey to put it in hot water and baking soda to clean it up? I'm not sure if the baking soda will harm the...
Hello fellow treasure searchers! :) Do you think this is real silver? It has no markings. I thought it was a washer so I put it away for a week and forgot to ask my Dad if he thought it was one or not. After pulling it out again I realized it must be a ring because it's so think and has no...
Does anyone have an idea of what type of stones these are, and if they are precious/semi-precious and worth something?
I did my own research and got mixed feedback and info.
I was told the large brown one with cream and dark brown cloudy swirls (in a decorative pin) is agate. The small cream...
7/17/18 Got out to do some detecting and got a nice surprise. Second Target of the hunt was this 2.1 gram 10k, Sterling and diamond ring. Sure, it's small. The diamonds are just chips in a cluster setting but I'll still take it!
Thanks for looking.
Hi! I haven’t been finding anything good lately, but I inherited this cameo pendent and ring from my aunt. She told me her Russian aunts owned them. Wondered if anyone knows anything about how old they can be. The cameo has the word sterling on it. Thanks
Went out to the park for a couple of hours in the afternoon. Was just finding mostly junk (old shotgun shells, nails, cast iron). Only had a few minutes before I had to leave and got a GREAT signal under a large chunk of concrete. Underneath I found the quarter (1917 Type 2) with the dime...
* Does anyone know what country or tribe this could be from?
* What does it symbolize?
It looks like a cross, but not sure.
Bottom of pendant has a pointed tip. (Can't see in pic)
The pendant takes up my whole palm of hand.
Made of brass with a long brass chain.
Any info would be greatly...
Skipping #4 which was my last hunt almost 3 weeks ago at the old coal mine again, but with my son. It was more adventure than metal detecting, but interesting things were found when we were not playing Minecraft.
With the weather changing to sub-zero the last few weeks digging has crawled to a...
I collected these two artifacts while I was traveling and I'm struggling with identifying them. I believe they are both egyptian in origin from their design (namely the bird shapes being reminiscent of something you'd find close to the edge of the Nile. Both are made from an alloy of bronze and...
Hi everybody, hope you are well. I am posting a few jewelry fragment finds, as well as a beautiful butterfly hair barrette fragment, and a pretty nice 1830 large cent. John dug these over the weekend. I'd love to be able to date the butterfly barrette, but I can't find any legitimate antique...
Stopped at a garage sale this past Sunday. I didn't see anything of interest and was about to leave until I spotted a small trinket box with a few junky necklaces. Lo and behold at the bottom of the box there was what appeared to be a crucifix pendant attached to a gold chain. I turned the...
Came across this necklace made of recycled material and was trying to find the designer. I'm not sure exactly what it is made of, but I think the ornament is some sort of wire dipped in silver. Any help is greatly appreciated!
