Best name for a find, yet.

"Silver looking whatsit." I approve!

To test if it's silver, btw, use the "Foil Test." Spit in the foil, wrap the object in the foil, and rub it gently for about 10 seconds. Wait a few more seconds, and then open the foil and SMELL it. If it's a strong rotten egg smell, you've got silver. If there's no smell (or just the smell of your own spit, LOL), then you've NOT got Silver.

Easiest test I know of, and works great. To prove this, just grab a known piece of silver (heck, the rosie will work fine), and test it on that. Then, you'll know what smell you're looking for.

Cheers,

SKippy
