Found my first silver + gold!

Well today i found my first silver! Its a 1904 Barber dime! Was very excited, and its in great shape to boot! At another spot we uncovered a gold band with around 12 diamond looking stones in it (Missing 2 of the stones) Not sure if its real or not it was really dirty. The metal is soft like gold would be. Pics of that will be coming soon. Nothing else to note really today. Note these pics are from the hole to my pocket i havent even cleaned them yet!

My buddy is still working on cleaning it up. I send him a message to see if its marked anywhere. Here is what he had for me so far.

In this picture it looks more and more tarnish color. But in the light it was definatley "gold" colored. I wonder if its just plated?
