    Rang some doorbells today

    but I didn't get any answers so I decided to just go clad hunting in front of City Hall in the next town over.

    1st target was a quarter then the next target was the Ring. Sterling Silver .925
    I thought this just might turn out ok.
    A while later after a bunch of clad I pull out the earring with the nice purple stone marked.925
    10 minutes later I pulled out the strange looking pin, kind of a weird piece of jewelry for a pin, that is sterling silver.
    After an hour I dug a penny signal and in the hole was the giant marble, funny thing is, I may not have gotten the marble if I would have pin pointed penny that was over about 3 more inches.

    In all I ended up with 5 Wheats and $ 4.68

    Hold on ~ Let me sip some Des Plaines River Water ... Ahhh a cool refreshing drink ...

    THAT SILVER IS WAY COOL ...

    Still diggin the marble ~ Nick
    Don't be so quick to guzzle that Des Plaines River water, Nick. I think that marble you admire so much was somehow fashioned from the waters of the Des Plaines...except the yellow color is too clear!

    That's some way hip cool jewelry there Bob! Maybe if you put the marble on a pedestal and wave your hands around it while chanting the theme from My Three Sons you'll channel Auntie Em and can get some idea of...

    Hang on....

    Just back from Olive Garden, waiting for the lasagna to settle....

    OOhh, there it is!

    Nice digs!

    Great day Bob! 3 un-mangled pieces of silver jewelry from 1 site.

    Were they close to each other?, 'cause they look like they belonged to the same person.
