Found silver

[pepperj]

I'm posting this in today's finds, well because I have just found it today.

Back story: Went to a detecting event in 2013.
Won a detector, and they handed me this Minelab bag of stuff.
I looked in the bag, looked like a bunch of promo merchandise.
Over the years it's sat in various places in storage.
I'm thinning the herd and I was putting stuff in the carry bag, then emptied the bag. Clink!
Out came 2 pins and 2 silvers.
Something thatvI have had for over 11 yrs and didn't know it.
1902 silver dollar
1/4 oz .999 silver round.

Easiest silver I have gotten yet.
Showed the Mrs.....

It depends on a few things
How nice?

I'm thinking if the world economics $hits the fan sort of thing.
I have 2 choices-trade silver for food, or
Put that nice arrowhead on a stick and play caveman, and go kill something for food.

I was in the shop storage, no heat.
So I got pretty chilled.
No shovel digging or cleaning required.

There's nothing better than silver the easy way ! Good thing you didn't just throw that bag out.

I was just going to leave the aprons and a bug hat in the bag then just say free extras.
I'm sure the freebee silvers would of had me head spinning on the thoughts.

Minelab Explorer package

I'm starting to think about thinning the herd. So here is a detector I bought for a buddy from a buddy 11 yrs ago. Just assembled and tested it, crazy to buy for a thought he'd be interested. So here is what package one has. EXPLORER XS KOSS HEADPHONES (used twice) PRO-FIND PIN POINTER (used...

It’s like putting on a coat you haven’t worn in years and finding a hundred dollar bill in the pocket. Nice!
