Spent a couple hours after work hitting a community park that used to be a school . According to a old map I found before it was a school ,a feed mill and tenant house stood there in the early 1800s. Didn't find much old stuff because of all the fill used to level out the ground when the school was built in the 1940s. But there where pockets of high ground with no fill . In those spots I found older stuff , buttons , iron etc . In one of those spots I popped out my oldest silver to date and what great detail it has . It ended up being a 4 silver night with my girlfriend scoring her first ever silver . A man's sterling wedding band .

Wonderful Ferdinand VI. And the globes and pillars is such a great design. The pillars representing the Straits of Gibraltar and the globes the old and new world. Nice little piece of history
