found this about two weeks ago didnt want to post without testing the silver. acid test came out creamy cloudy and this is an awesome thing. very heavy for its size, found in an old feild that i thaught was worked out.I have pulled 1812 seminole war button outta this place what gets me is that its not marked, but test 925 or better
WOW this is great ive waited a long time to post on this site have been reading for a long time. now everyone who thinks there isnt anymore real treasure, feast your eyes. the vdi was a steady 93 silver dollar, very strong signal found this while detecting with my 10 year old neice she was totaly freakin and so was I!!!!!

UPDATED:10/6/09 had bar appraised today 500.00 not sure of purity but its SILVER

655.20 For market value not bad at all I bet it has value as a historical object. I know this much this is a great find. I like to vote banner for items that would easily pay for your detector with that one find while this might not fit that bill I would have to say this is a once in a lifetime find will not be your best you ever find but this is a huge Wow!!!! :headbang:
