Folks,

I thought since a lot of people may be doing the isolation thingy it wouldn't be a bad idea to start a thread where we could share some of our past finds.

I'll get the ball rolling. Sterling silver stamp safe. Bring em on....coins, jewelry, relics, buttons, etc...

Joe,

Nice of you to drop in and share your finds. Hope you are doing well take care buddy.

Last years gold... 125 gold rings

Wishing everyone the best out there and be safe.
 

Terry,

Thanks for sharing...I have a few around here somewhere or other, however, mine were bought they're not to be found in my area.

Great finds you should be proud.
 

Michael,

Great find on the quartz arrowhead they don't show up very often I'm sure!
 

Susan,

Kind of makes you wander who'd put a coin that old to cash in????
 

This is the one I ware every day...its brought me lots of luck and many people have struck up a random conversation because of it. I chose a coin that was not dated and didnt have a huge value. This way I wont feel to bad if its lost. It's a piece of eight cobb that was found in the same hole as my avatar. Probably from the wreck of the san Felipe 1733. My local jeweler made it up for me and set the garnets that I took out of another piece of found jewelry. I never leave home without my coin on and many people know me by this coin !!

That is sweet, Bart! The jeweler did a great job mounting it.

Nice rings, Bill. What do you do with the rings you find? Does your wife ever claim any?
 

Here is some silver pendants my good friend Bill:occasion14:
