Been hunting the bahamas for relics and hit some fused conglomerate from an old house that burnt and fell into the sea....I've found some good stuff over the years here from time to time but I've always been looking for the rumored silverware here !! Well I've finally started to find some after a couple years of poking around. Today I got a heavy ladle handle in silver along with a large conglomerate that has a silver spoon bowl and a mystery piece of inscribed silver !! The pictured pieces are only a few of what I found but have definitely got silver locked inside
You can see a large silverware handle in the first pic and the large silver conglomerate next to it.
in this chunk you can see the decorative silver spoon bowl exposed in this clump.
Heres the inscribed piece that came out of this silver clump
I cant make out what it once said but it does have a patent also at the top of the tag.
This was a deep hit that turned out to be a Revlon compac from the 50s.
In this video I had just dug it and had not reached the HEAVY LAYER yet !!
heres my co worker digging with me on her day off...she did good with the carrot pin pointer and actually dug a nice bottle while digging in the iron layer today !!
Here's some of the iron trash we cleared away to get to the heavy (silver)layer today !! Check out the video.....the nox is a beast at looking through the iron !! There's more there.....I wanted to dig more but to be honest I cut my finger on glass while digging and had to stop !! Happy hunting everyone and good luck.

. Oh well, things are OK again and I am still trying to solve some of Bart's riddles. Searched 32 websites so far, and thousands of button pictures and have not even found one remotely close at all. I have looked on American sites, English sites, French sites, Spanish sites, and the Bahama sites and zero 
. I've looked at clothing buttons, electrical buttons, door bell buttons, even inserts for cabinet door pull/knobs. Some British designs on the cabinet pull/knob inserts showed more promise, but even they were still out in left field. I have not given up yet, but please Bart, when you get back and have time, please post picture updates.
Again, thanks Sis.
