    Low water finds/ Sharks tooth...Buffalo....multi silver

    Hit a local swim area today.I had gone over this area in the fall , however , the water level is down about 3ft allowing me to hunt an area that was previously too deep. After about two hours I had pocketed a bit of change including seven nickles which I envisioned each to be a large gold ring....not. A shark tooth necklace which I had to battle a large Zebra Mussel for. A small silver ring , and several pieces of what I thought was junk jewelry.

    Well , after getting home and putting my eyes on , things got a bit better.
    One of the nickles turned out to be a 1920 Buffalo?? Looks like a recent drop??
    Also....every piece of "junk jewelry" turned out to be silver!

    Also found /pictured a set of military dog tags. Anyone have any idea on what I would do with them? Googled the name but really didnt come up with anything.

    Nice digs! The set might be a wedding set. If they are the same size that is. The military tags can be returned. I will get back with you about this.

    The matched rings are size 7 1/2 and 10.
