1 stamped 925 confirmed solid silver..
1 cheapo copper thingy
1 gold plated dolphin

Plus..
One questionable large winged earring.. looks silver but no stamp and there's a slight brush of copper under the edges of wings.

One unknown pendant. .
No corrosion.. I suspect to be white gold but id assume it would be stamped???

Also have two quarters.. 1965 and 1967 are they silver??? No corrosion like newer ones.

...and about $5 in pocket change!

Using MXT Pro w DD 6x9 eclipse.
Coin/Jewelry mode
Disc 3
Gain 10
Thresh @ 43% ish (weee slight hum)
Ground tracking ON

... when that ass said "alright a penny!" when he walked by... I said.. "yah not as cool as this ring is it?"

No silver on the quarters. 1964 and earlier for silver. Nice finds though!

Wow, your park looks awesome! I mostly find junk in mine. There aren't any stamps on that pendant? Try looking next to the clasp on the chain! I'm guessing the wing earring is not valuable as I have found several similar earrings, they look shiny but I've never found a stamp or gotten a positive from acid tests.

Ya huge parks... lots of outdoorsy folk here.

Hay.. by the way.. what's the best method of cleaning mass amounts of coins??

I was thinking of a cheap rock tumbler from harbor freight and like walnut shells as abrasive.

What say you?

I use the rock tumbler, with aquarium pebbles, a dash of simple green, and water just over the top of the coins, works great
