I thought it was junk...a nice little surprise!

[BigWaveDave]

This little charm has what I believe a fresh water pearl inside, the piece itself is marked 925, so that counts!!!

Thanks for looking!

Ha!, no Sarge... I actually pulled it from the right side of the front walkway of a new permission today....house built in 1925... silver coins were lacking, but I did find a 1913 wheat also

 

[Old Dude]

That is a very nice little find. Nice going Dave.

 

[SirWalterRaleigh]

That's a really cool fun. I love the fact that you found the pearl. Probably don't find too many of those metal detecting

Now that's a cool little find, congrats on the recovery.

What made you think it was junk. I would think that silver would have sang a song. At Pro ?

 

[deldave]

AT PRO? I would have thought that would really ring up nice, how deep?

 

[BigWaveDave]

AT PRO? I would have thought that would really ring up nice, how deep?

About 4 inches deep... rang up 82-83 as I was cherry picking high tones when I first started the hunt.

I thought it was junk when I saw some flaking of the finish on the inside rungs od the "cage", and in the field my eyesight not so good. When I got home I cleaned it up, and with my eyepiece I finally found the mark hiding on the inside....the flaking must have been some plating that is falling off...still a cool piece.

Back in the 70's I bought my wife a set of matching earrings and necklace that look identical. Nice find !
