Finds For The 4th Of Feb

Hey Nohope587! Looks like a very productive day. Are those holed coins subway tokens? I am very seriously considering the purchase of a detector. My brother in law has one he has never used and offered it to me. I will find out what make it is and check with you guys to see if it is a decent model and what might be a fair price for it. He showed it to me at Christmas and it was very balanced and light- weight. Good luck in your hunts! I hope you find a quarter million dollar coin like George Williams, an upstate New York contractor's 1817/4 Bust Half Dollar "raking dirt find" from last year! Mike

P.S. Hey Metalman, are you O.K.? I hope the injury is not serious! Mike

Thanks Mike

Ive had worse !! it will put me off work for a couple of days, but thats only because its on my right hand,, and mostly the middle finger (compression rupture No broken bones this time !!)

That would be cool if you got a detector!!! Its really an interesting past time, and sometimes profitable !! we'll find out as Nohope Id's this ring !!

Based on its weight and volume its silver not gold. I did some searching around and European Sterling silver comes in various grades 825 means 82.5% silver. This tells me the Ring was made in Europe somewhere but was lost in the state of Texas.
