Another beautiful day in Minnesota! Found a nice little park today.

Stamped 925




I don't think this is silver. No stamp.

Looks more like a fur trader than a soldier...thoughts? I have no idea on age. Maybe 1930's?

Coin is 1964 10 centimes.

Besides these I pulled in about 60 clad coins. Handful of 1965 dimes and quarters. Frustrating! Not complaining though.

Thanks for checking out my day!

Your lead soldier is a Lincoln Logs Pioneer figure, sold in sets or in boxes with Lincoln Logs in the late 1940's-1950's. Cheers, Sub 8-)

Not so fast on the chip inlay ring - very likely silver - no mark doesn't always mean not silver . See how it responds to some gentle cleaning , silver polishes very nicely ( and easily except for some extreme conditions like salt water)
