Mexican silver and possibly onyx found in a parking lot

A silver ear ring

An Italian silver braclet

A shark tooth fossil (probably Great White) at Calvert Cliffs. I fashioned into a handmade necklace w/silver.

Cache of minerals and fossils. (Found at a decommissioned plant nursery)

This is not counting my extensive silver coin finds over the years when working as a young cashier or pocket change finds over time which I will document later.

wow lots of rocks for sure...did ya cut your own geodes too... very nice collection...I have a ton of cut geodes too.. very nice.
 

I guess I should have posted this in the best finds forum...mods feel free to move.

The rocks were all found in one place at a decommissioned plant nursery I had access to. It was kind of like a treasure chest of rocks and fossils. The geodes were already cut and everything. The ammonite was polished the trilobytes intact and everything. It was a lucky "cache" find. The nursery had sold them in the past and when they left they just abandoned all kinds of stuff like that. I found about $30 worth of clad in a money bag too. The place is still there but I'm not sure if they finally started tearing it down yet or not. I will check it out and if it's still there I will post an X-marks the spot thread. I've pretty much sifted through everything there though :)...but I guess you can never find everything by yourself.
