1923 peace dollar!!

[Dirtminer]

My wife had just bought another house. She is a real estate investor. So going through the shed through all of the "leftovers" and found a case in the loft that should have been empty but now I shake everything from my time in the woods digging. Upon opened nh the black and decker drill case out popped these two beauties. And a prescription bottle filled with jewelry. Silver necklaces and a pair of two carat diamond stud earrings that hopefully are real. A gold bracelet and pendants. Well here are the pictures of the medicine bottle filled with jewelry. so after using my handy dandy calipers. I found out that the studs measure 6.5 mm which means that they are 2 carats each. For a total of 4 carat weight. The backings of them are real on the connector and on the shaft they say 92 5 which they are real silver. I'm going to have them looked at this week hopefully they're not cubic zirconia. What gives me hope about the reality of these earrings is that the rest of the jewelry that was in the container is real silver. necklaces. bracelet is gold plated silver with sapphires and the necklace pendant is amethyst surrounded by diamonds.

Your coins are beautiful! I found my 1923 Peace dollar in an odd way also -- while waiting for my son to show up with our shared detector, I spent 20 minutes slowly walking over the old field searching for eyeball finds, spotting a dusty Peace dollar amid the rubble! He's since upgraded to a Teknetics machine, but often I eyeball wood-chip parks as I pass by them when not detecting, resulting recently in a lovely silver ring with faceted stones. Have Fun!

So I've been digging everything for five years this is certainly a pay off for all of the effort and beer cans pulltabs bottle caps square headed nails cats bones dentures and ticks and poison ivy. This stuff may not be worth a fortune but this is one of those moments. This is why we do what we do. not so much for the value of things but for the stories and the excitement of finding something.
