Went this morning to one of my favorite spots, a intermural field at local university, with a friend who just had his etrac so was teaching him the machine, we were finding the usual clad and pulltabs, until I got a 12-37 signal and was thinking another zinc and comes this piece chain and then found another, another I dug a total of four plugs finally found all the Silver necklace , marked Italy 925

Sweet find Jim. :icon_thumleft: Did you chop it up when you were trying to retrieve the initial signal? I wonder why it rang in as zinc if indeed it's .925 silver.
