Found 2 silver today, one weighed 20 grams - A Very GOOD Day!!

[wlb42]

The 1943 silver mercury dime was found in a rocky driveway at about 4-5 inches deep, and the Lunt .925 Sterling silver spoon weighs 20 gram and was found at about 6 inches. Also found a 1920 wheat cent in the same area, not pictured. Only cleaned with toothbrush, water and soap....however nicked the bowl of the spoon cutting the plug because of being so long, but it will end up as silver melt when silver gets to $50 an ounce..lol


(to see a close up of the spoon just click on the pictures)

Thanks for looking.........Bill

That dime looks great, you can definately tell it was under the gravel line/or in a place it didnt shift with the traffic on the gravel
