925

  1. Thrift SILVER find

    Found this silver spoon that I almost passed up...on second thought decided to look up what 835 means...just in case. (I only knew the 925 mark). Learned something new today!! Nice.
  2. Double Silver Score!

    Hello! Been AGES since I've posted. Scored 25 cent silver spoon at a thrift store. Possibly 2 silver ones. Can anyone help me identify the small Dutch one? Is it silver or not? Has markings but not sure. I know the other is (even though it looks goldish for some reason) because it says Sterling...
  3. Giant Silver Score at Work!

    Hello! I was lucky enough to find this chunky 16 gram silver bracelet at work. Unfortunately the customer didn't come back for it for 3 weeks. So I got to take it home. It looks homemade...hammered. no markings. 100% sure it's silver but not positive if it's only plated, or soild sterling. Any...

  5. Thrift store Silver!!!

    I was looking through the silver plated spoons at a thrift store not expecting to find anything because I never do. Well. Bingo. Don't know a ton about silver spoons but %99 percent sure this is sterling!!! Can anyone varify for me? What stuck out is that it's not rainbowy colored like most...
  6. Kiera CZ925 VN Earring

    Howdy folks, I found this a few days ago. Eyeballed it just sittin' on the ground. The inside of it reads KIERA C(Z, or possibly 2)925 VN. Since 925 usually means sterling I'm assuming it is probably gold plated silver? What about the CZ or C2? Thank you and happy hunting!
  7. Gold and silver recovery

    My Grama gave us a ton of junk jewelry in several bags. I excitedly went through them all and was rewarded with two treasures- a 10k broken chain (weighs less then a gram, I don't have a jewelry scale), and a 925 silver earring!!! This is my second gold I've ever found. Also found these two cool...

    Found this silver medical bracelet at a yard sale and asked the lady how much she wanted. She said a buck so I got it. She had coin books there and I asked if she had coins for sale.

  11. :) DOUBLE SILVER!!! :)

    I found this spoon at a garage sale for .25 cents. It was all tarnished and ugly when I got it. All it says on the bottom is COMMUNITY. Is it silver or just plated? If it's only plated, is it worth anything? I found this bracelet at a playground with my detector. It doesn't have markings but...

    Went for a little hunt and found this ugly hunky skull ring and a nice silver coin! I wish that the ring was silver or even better gold because it's huge... oh well. Every junk ring you dig helps to keep you going because you never know, the next might be real!!! I've found six rings at this...
  13. New detector= SILVER STREAK!!!

    The 58' I found tonight... the others I've found this past week. Wow... I'm impressed with the land ranger pro. I've been digging only high signals and it is really helping me to not get frustrated because I'm finding mostly clad and silver! I know that I could be missing gold but where I'm...

  18. What does 925 OBJ mean?

    I dug this cross on Saturday and I'm wondering what this stamp means. My best guess is that the clasp or loop is 925 sterling but the cross itself may be silver plated? I thought it would be a simple Google search but it hasn't been. Thanks
