Today's afternoon hunt. Yes, that is an astounding 50 pennies.

I found a weird ring that appears to be copper. It's a spinner and it has some un-identifiable writing or inscription on it. Anyone got any idea what that is?
Edited to add: I think it might just be some kids art class project.

Also found this earring. When I find things like this, I don't always know what's junk and what could possibly be silver. Only the "post" or the thing that goes through the ear is magnetic. It appears tarnished but around the "jewels" it has that old silver look (kinda). I don't see a marking anywhere. It's got a bit of weight, 4.0 g. Silver plated? Junk?? thx

The earring could be sterling. I've found single gold earrings that were unmarked. Sometimes only one of the pair gets stamped and sometimes neither do. My advice would be to buy an acid testing kit for this and future finds.

Congrats on the nice hunt that produced all those good targets. :occasion14: Clad adds up and your treasure chest will be overflowing soon if you continue to pull that much bling on every hunt.
