Silver! From the big blue tub 'o junk

Well, I'm going stir crazy from being housebound. It was in the -40's with the wind chill factor last night. I was telling Vino today that it's almost cold enough to piss ice cubes haha.

I have this tub I throw all my junk in after I detect (this is only some of it lol), and today I thought I'd go through it and see if I missed anything good. I found a few neat odds and ends, lots of lead, and even some silver.

Just a few shell casings ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1453073505.334351.jpg

Some lead ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1453073540.022484.jpg

Any idea what these lead things are?? ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1453073582.724969.jpg

And silver! The little piece is very thin, and I think it embellished something. The knife handle is hollow, but actually quite heavy. I sawed into it to confirm my suspicions, and sure enough it's solid silver, not plated.

It was nice to get my hands on some dirty junk lol.

Well it's warmed up a tad to -28 (-18.4F) with the the wind chill factor today. By the end of the week it will be up to +1 (33.8F) so that's a bit better. The rapid temperature and barometric pressure changes wreak havoc on my head though, it's brutal for people who get migraine headaches.
