I found these while I was metal detecting in a creek where gold has been found, the area is also known for having a tin mine that produced some silver and gold. I bought an acid test, and got these results. I want to think that the acid turned brown, indicating 80% silver, but I have never done it before, so I don't know. Any help on the subject would be greatly appreciated. Also, the streak was silver, not quite silver/white, but if it is 80%, would the streak still be silver/white with 20% of another mineral(s) in it? When I scratched it on the test plate, it was shiny.
Happy hunting everyone!
