Just love variety days.

[WHADIFIND]

Went back to the schoolyard I mentioned last week. It's still a very nice place to take my detector for a walk. I only had a short time last week but somehow I just knew this would be a fun place to hunt. The variety I got today didn't come as much of a surprise. I really enjoyed myself.

Here's the lump total:




The big lump of metal might be just that, a lump of metal. It's not magnetic, fairly heavy and kind of shiny metal inside, (see the grooves I cut).


This was a pleasant, surprising little pretty. It was a bit deeper than I would've figured for something modern.

Also, it showed itself as you see it in the picture above. But when I moved it, this revealed.



They seemed so delicate, I was surprised they held up so well.

Anyway, here they all are after a bit of cleaning up.










Just another "No Cash Value" token.






Butterflies clean up nice, don't they.

The little piece at the bottom is part of what used to be on the back.


A roached, plated ring.



A touch of silver to round out the day is always nice.



Hope you enjoyed the trip.

Thanks for peeking!

HH!

The butterflies are beautiful. Enameled? What are they from?

Enameled? Yeah, I guess. They are sort of done like stained glass windows. Sorry my pics aren't showing too well. Would a different angle help?

But, yeah, beautiful! That's what I thought too.

Thanks!

nice finds, the 925s just the icing on the cake

Well, this was the best I could clean up the butterflies. I couldn't find even as much as a jeweler's mark.

Here's a couple more pics. Anyone ever see the like?

The back appears to be brass. Maybe gold plated?

Thanks!
