Will a metal detector pick up soder? The kind you use to use with a sodering iron. I found
Something that I think is probably soder , but I'm not sure. It's a small silver object...weighs
About 13 oz.
Thanks

It looks like this? Silver? Test with acid at jewelers silver is red, "German silver" nickel is dark blue. HH Boris 20130222_112827.jpg Can you see Pig/ship logo? SI and P? roman numerals heavy? My theory is Sommer Islands[Bermuda]!:skullflag::4leafclover:

No, it's not something a magnet will attract...tried that. It's very hard. It's doesn't flake off.
It's a mystery to me...I'll keep trying to figure it out.
