First real silver of the year and what a neat find!

[Ken from Atlanta]

I put in a few hours today and came up pretty good. The barbell thing is a little childs rattle, marked 925 silver mexico, not bad for my first real piece of silver this year. I came up with a 49s wheat, the globe thing (any ideas?) an old button that I put up in the what is it section(help!), and some clad change(7 quarters, 10 pennies). On my lunch break now, and then I'm headed back to see what else comes up!

Thank you for sharing.

Nice finds! Does that little "rattle" unscrew on one end? It sure looks
alot like some body piercing jewelry. Big ole nose bolt.

That "rattle' looks deceptively like tongue piercing jewelry.

The kind that goes all the way thru both sides..

If one end screws off, as said before, i'm betting thats what it is.

Wash that sucker off real good!

Hahaha, no it's definitely a rattle, it doesn't unscrew. I found a similar one online for around $80.00 so I'm happy with it. Makes me wonder though who gives little babies nearly an ounce of silver to play with?
