Melted aluminum slag. Find it all the time around beaches etc where they have camp fires and melt aluminum cans. Monty

Agreed. Little point in testing, however the kits are cheap & worth having for a later date

Melted coins? I found a small cache in some tigerlillies (flowers) one time
and later found out the homeowner tried every thing to kill the flowers
including building a large fire on them and nothing worked. I found 5 morgans
with v nickels melted into them and stacks of coins that were mostly just a blob.
there was alot of nuggets that were silver,nickel,copper,etc.

Any pictures, sounds like a good tale worthy of it's own thread!

I will do what I can to help you learn the picture thing if you want,
fairly simple after you learn it.
Send me a personal message if you want
and I will try to walk you through it. Happy Thanksgiving!
