Silver in the sand this morning

[lorraine]

Hi

Hunted 2 1/2 hrs. in dry sand today at high tide.

Found a good amount of clads , 2 silver dimes, a "spinner ring", junk earring with a surprise . I knew that the earring itself was not silver, and I checked the prong..no marking, and then I finally checked the tiny connecting piece and there I found 925 marking....tiny, but I'll take it.

The 1924 "wheatie " was from a previous hunt; it is in excellent condition compared to other "wheats" that I find in salty conditions.

Here's some pics

thanks for looking

Lorraine, you are truly a silver magnet. It is nice to have a hobby like ours where we find some pieces of history, find lost items for people and enjoy the beauty of the outdoors at the same time.

You must have a silver magnet. I never knew they made those. Do they have one for cobs? Congrats

Thanks, sponge; I'm not sure what is meant by cobs...do you mean Spanish cobs?

Yep but I guess the silver magnet would get those also. One day I will find one. One day.
