silver

My husband and I have been detecting for 5 years and this is the first time we've felt it worth posting. These are our finds from today's curb scrape. We also hit a lakeside Park and the beach Friday evening. The beach yielded 2 junk rings for my husband and a little clad for the both of us. The...

I Found my first Silver Coin today a 1941 Silver Mercury Dime. I'm fairly new to Metal Detecting & Coin collecting can someone tell me the Value of this coin and is this considered in pretty good condition?

Today I was detecting my yard for what seemed like the 50th time. It sure was a shocker when I pulled up my first silver dime! The year is 1951.

Hello all, Here are my finds from a local tot lot. (I'm still trying to figure out if the heart is silver.)

Hey guys, its been over a year since I posted anything on the site mainly because of the lack of finding stuff and well...winter. Haha. But the last week or two I've been finding things in and around old potato/veggie gardens in good ol' Newfoundland. Here's a video I made because I decided to...

Can anyone help me identify this piece I found? I found this with my metal detector mixed in with an old homes rock foundation that was all buried under years of leaves and soil. It weighs approx 8 lbs, does not flake, is solid except for the small amount of quartz type minerals on one side. All...

So I found this ring. I tested it and it is silver, sterling, even though it is not marked with"Sterling" or ".925"....It does have a hallmark though. I have some pictures, can someone please help me find out what the hallmark stands for, the artist, is it old, and also what kind of...

Hello everybody less than a week old to metal detecting so bear with me. So I was out on my second ever metal detecting trip with my new Garrett AT Gold and found two nuggets 5 feet apart 4-6 inches down in the gravel bed of my favorite river. Both nuggets were found in an area where Silver and...

For me, I was dabbling in some coin roll hunting of pennies. Just a box or so every month. But, one day I peeled back the paper and saw a band of tarnished gray that is unmistakable. Silver! And I mean real silver, not just a clad dime that got mixed into the penny roll. I lifted it out by the...

Yesterday I told you guys about having found 4 sterling silver forks while out hunting with my little boy. Well today we went back and after filling my pouch with trash twice and removing a wheel barrel full of dirt trying to clean out the hole of all targets, bang we found two more sterling...

Wondering if there is any exposed veins ,mines, caches on this photo?

I found it today at my house.

Alright I've been a bit lazy about posting my finds lately but some things just need to be shared. My first good find of the day was an old buckle cover that dates back to around the 1880's or so. Good find for my relic pile, then after a makeup tin and some other stuff I found a 61 Rosey. After...

Found this at the low tide line yesterday on beach in St. Augustine area. Is it old because of the shells stuck on it? Generally how long does something need to be in the water for this to happen? And, if old, why hasn't it corroded away (if it were iron)? I scraped and edge to show the metal...

Hi frieds :) After a hard weekend full of snow, cold and digging, here is a new video about how Nils found this HUGE old ring. Enjoy ;)

Amanda and I have officially waged war on silver. Particularly silver coins. Sure we'll take silver jewelry and gold but this silver war is personal. The first coin in our sights is a mercury dime and if you make it far enough through this video you may see us detect our first one. The first...

I woke up a bit late this morning but feeling good and decided to make the most of what little time I had. Today's target was an old homestead that I know very little about other that the fact that there is virtually no trace of it above ground today. I only had 2 hours to hunt so I was just...

Hey everyone, this is my first post. I just finished looking through 10 half dollar bank rolls and found this... It appears to be silver, the edge of the coin is one reason why it does, also the metal just looks different overall compared to other non silver half dollars. This wouldn't normally...

I found what appears to be crudely refined silver. I've gotten two conflicting reports on the % of silver in it. That really doesn't bother me. What I really want to know is the date approx of its smelting. Is it possible to date metal? Unfortunately I pretty much toothbrush scrubbed the patina...

Hi gang, Talk about bizarre--the other day we found two, draped bust large cents, and today we find two Morgan Silver Dollars! I should add that John's eight-year-old son, Johnny, found the older coin on his Ace 350! Way to go, Johnny! Also found assorted buttons. The Morgans are 1883 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...

My brother picked this coin at our job's parking lot and as he was about to toss it, I said WAIT! I looked at it and I said to him this might be a silver reales, he looked at it and didn't cared for it so he gave it to me. The real question is: what can it be? I know it's unidentifiable but...

Hi everyone, We found these items today. The dark coin looks very old, and we have a good silhouette showing...but letters are very faded. Dug him up from under a tree root on the 1683 property. Would love to hear if this guy looks familiar to anyone. 8-) Also found a Spanish real, about...

Had an absolutely incredible hunt yesterday. Received a new permission on a 1937 home in the beach home area on Lake Michigan. Supposedly some Al Capone history on the house, but I have verified that is not the case. Had my first hunt on Friday and was pulling tons of wheaties out of the...

I was dribbling my soccer ball around the block and when I got to the train tracks my eyes stumbled upon this piece. I don't know if the piece that is sticking out is silver or not. It is pretty shiny in the picture. Can you help me identifying it??

Hello TNet, I am a new member to the forum. I have been reading the forum for the past few months but I haven't found anything notable to post up. That all changed today. I had a little free time to get out with the new AT Pro today to learn the machine a little bit more. I used the machine for...
