Hunt @ My Aunts House

[SouthJerseyRyan]

Hunted my Aunt's house a few months back and haven't had a chance to get my pictures up on TNET. The first item I found was a silver Australian Schilling. However it looks like it was turned into some sort of love locket due to holes being drilled in the sides and a silver heart with initials on the back. Very Cool!!! I also found a silver ring with fake plastic ruby. I researched the ring and it looks like it has something to do with the Mexican Army.

That ring is marked 925 in case anyone tries to tell you its just plated...

Interesting fact about that Australian shilling is that it was actually minted at the San Fransisco Mint.

Interesting, I didn't know that. I don't know what it was doing in a South Jersey backyard. Who knows! The property is over 150 years old.
