I found silver today all over the place, some of it was even real!

First Score: Belt in a thrift store. Buckle was unmarked by handmade. I took a chance and it's not silver. Found 4 earrings there too: One is silver, 925 marked, 2 more suspected silver, last one is not.
Second Score: Walking across the parking lot I found a beautiful Italian silver chain.
Third Score: Walking across another parking this afternoon I found a hefty ring but bent ring marked 925 and couldn't believe my luck. I brought it home and it failed the magnet test. Fake! The ironic part is that the ring is also marked "Dream"!

Still, I'll take what I can get. I decent day finding stuff at the thrift store and on the ground. I'm posting a picture that includes some of the other odds and ends that up picked up with the silver.

Nice silver "dreams" you found!
Yep Treasure's where you find it!

I found a little elephant charm in a parking lot a few days back thought it was silver but I think I can see some copper color in a scratch, so guess not, but it was fun finding it. Our ground is frozen solid here now.
