 "John Holmes Jr."
I saw a pic of member found "Slag"Silver coin metal,"DON'T SELL!"
I saw a post and if you know who posted the found with a metal Detector a melted piece of "SLAG",
They showed a picture last month and was told it was almost pure coin-silver.
I have almost the identical melted semi-smooth rounded metalic piece which is non-magnetic.
Tonight I saw on youtube, this looks the same as natural Platinum! which with the past high heat was melted from stones and formed naturally. Platimun much more precious than Gold! So hold off from selling it off at the price of Coin Silver! till you have yours checked... I am going to have mine tested for platinum.
This is from a gold field by the creek North Cal. behind my 150 year old house/rental found in the ground with my Tesoro M.D.
I thought you should know what you might have.
(I am glad I held on to mine, my partner offered me "Gold" price but I did not sell.) My piece is aprox 2-3 ounces solid/pure in one piece.

you might be talking about this?

I acid tested it.... I do have platinum acid... I could try that as well.
I dont have any lode bearing geology around here... and I have found other slag in my yard in various alloys. I think there was a fire here. There was an old barn standing on my property in the late 40's.
If you ever hit the big one detecting....follow the 3S rule. Shoot. Shovel and Shut up.

"Lakemonster" I will keep you posted if I get positive results.
I don't know if you still have your metal "Slag" piece.
Thank you for the reply & good luck.
