Been getting a lot of rain here. I was able to get out on the river today between thunder storms before the slug of flood water hits. I did manage a few bullets and a silver money clip(?). Any day on the water beats a day at work!

Here are my finds. The money clip is engraved. I'll try to find it's owner, but the amount of accumulated years may not be on my side. :sadsmiley:

The back. I figure it's a money clip. Do you think so?

Thanks for checking out my post!

***UPDATE***

My FaceBook friend TimT found this guys obituary. He lived not far from me. It makes me feel old

Very nice find on money clip and great research to find the owner...sad that he has passed as it would have been a great day to give back what one thought they had lost forever. Good Hunting.

I'm going to dig into it and see who I can find. It's all local, so it should be pretty easy to figure out. Heck, I may even know a relative!

Good luck returning the clip to the family. Maybe his wife is still alive.
