metal detecting

Hello! I went as a knight for Halloween and found this belt for part of my outfit at the thrift store. Wondering if it's silver or silver plated maybe. Says Taiwan on the back. Looks tarnished...hoping it's silver but I'm guessing if it is its probably just plated which wouldn't be worth much...

It is a one piece very heavy iron I thing . It has striations around the ball part. The shank is drilled. Very odd to me ... I found ball buttons before but first one like this..

Two weeks ago I picked up a Simplex+ after some badgering from a pal. My experience has been good thus far. I've taken to digging everything but audibly low iron signals. I've watched hours of YouTube, and studied forum materials. I'd appreciate any lesser known hot tips if anyone feels...

The bird tag with a leg bone still inside was probably my strangest find so far. There's also a Palmolive token...

Just a little coin shooting ends up with a real surprise..

I've been at the metal detecting for about a year now. On Monday I got my first silver quarter (1941) and on Tuesday I got my first Tootsie toy. Pretty excited about both. (hope the pics upload)
