I have a very difficult time with pictures from the Celestron as well as the generic miscroscope camera on the fixed stand. I take the pictures, and then have to spend a half hour finding them, even though I pointed them to a specific location. Every single time and that's my major gripe about these gizmos.

However, finally gathered them all together.

I didn't bother taking a picture of the 45 cents, 4 nickles, 13 dimes and 6 quarters in clad which equated to $3.75. Battery fund!

But I found a very pretty ring stamped as sterling. Mom's wearing it right now but she did give me a chance for pictures :)

Then there was this round thin ring I thought was trash. Thin, very thin. and pretty large. I can't see any markings but I'm going in for cataract surgery next Wednesday. I put it under the microscope, saw it kinda has designs on it, so I did the 18k test on it and it shined bright blue for positive of silver.

Here's pictures of that:

And then there was this, an eyeball find. I thought it was neat so I put it in my pocket. I showed it to Steve and he was delighted. A maybe a 300 million year old fossil. He'll give me the scientific name later. I know nothing of this stuff, but that's just another forever keeper.

And that second ring back there, I really just thought that was trash. A testament to always testing!

Keep the faith. I guess you could say this was a very nice day.
