Just when you think you've seen everything, silver Rosie with rolled edge!
I was hitting it very hard today after seeing that Seated Half Dime I re-hit the area where my buddy found those silvers yesterday from a different direction. I had one really great sounding target that my Deus was telling me it was a deep silver, VDI was a four way 80. I got very excited thinking I was about to dig another Half Dime. Down about five inches pops what at first I thought was a lead pellet. I have found tons of bullets and buck shot, 00 buck (pronounced-double ought buck) is a fairly large lead shot. I have found flatten ones whick inhance the VDI number but not the sound. It is so close I have to dig it anyhow, but that target was screaming, "silver sound" Anyhow, when I got it in my glove it was full of dirt and snow I cleaned it off and could see the edge was rolled back. I threw it in the keeper side for later inspection. I went home after being in that cold and ate a sandwich and fell asleep. I was out and got home and looked in my distilled water and remembered I put it in there. I might try and roll the one edge back where maybe I could see a date, but I thought it was pretty cool, so I posted it.
I wonder if they started making a ring out of it and lost it?
