unfortunately not much to go on. As long as it tests silver that's a victory in itself

Very nice it looks good to me. Looks like it's been in a fire congratulations

Dime... burned in fire... then corroded in salt water...
OR
Dime that has been dipped/submerged in acid.
my guess.

lol, in its current state it is 1mm larger then a dime. How did you know it was dipped in acid, lol?

I didn't ... just shooting from the hip...

Just looked at the pic.

I think it is a dime as well. I read a theory online that silver coins rolling around the ocean can take on a sand blasted/pitted type look. It is super, super thin. I think it is just a beat up old silver dime. However, I'm going to pretend it is a reale.

"tis a mystery for sure!
