I spy with my little eye...something silver

[jopher]

Working some O.T. on the Southfield X-Way on Saturday. Checking some grades along the shoulder when I noticed something in the debris littering the edge of the road......could be a piece of junk......but looks kinda like.........Silver!

Silver Siamese bracelet

Weighs in at 76gm....Wow!

Nice overtime bonus

Cool Silver bracelet find!!
That must be about the furthest thing from my mind that I would imagine on the Southfield freeway

 

[postalgriff]

Thailand hasn't been called Siam since before 20 July 1949.

Hey that is neat! Congrats! I bet that might be worth a few pennies?

Although Siam lost its namesake to Thailand in the 40s , jewelry makers continued to use the Siam hallmark into the 80s.

I know...I should be looking over my shoulder...not at the shoulder.

I wish that I were that "in tune".
I had parked my truck and was walking.

Hey Jopher,

You don't work for Dan's Excavating by chance do you? I got a friend who's working on the Southfield Freeway right now. Just wondering.

Nice Joe!!! I had a chance to see/hold this find and I couldn’t help but notice how hefty it was. All my silver finds from this summer didn't even equal what you spotted with your eye one time! Nice Job Joe & Beautiful Piece of Jewelry!
Keep up the Good Work- J

very nice bit of asian bling at least 1980's (although saim changed its name to thailand in 1949 --many silver crafters still used saim until the 1980's time frame )
