Got up this morning and drove 2 hours to a big city south of here, I must have put in about five hours total in three different parks
for a little over $4.50 in clad and a couple of real neat items.

The pewter eagle is real heavy, wife thinks it was part of a necklace. I`m not sure if the round thing is a button or not, its pretty heavy for
its size.

The only old coin I got today was a 1919 wheat, the day would have been a total disappointment if not for the big beautiful silver coin
I found sitting on top of the ground!

I saw it lying there and thought it was a can lid sunk in the grass, but when I swept the Equinox over it, it started screaming, I looked at

the screen and it was showing a 39, so I thought that was pretty high for a can lid.

It would have really been cool if it was real coin, but I`m happy with it. 20180929_221952.webp20180929_222107.webp

A one ounce silver round! Awesome, silver is silver! RJGMC
 

really nice find
 

'Button' is actually a hem weight or curtain weight. Good eye find though on the silver!
 

Nice finds!:icon_thumleft: Nice bullion coin!

Good eye on the Bull and Bear Silver Round. It is one troy ounce of .999 Silver.
Congratulations
 

Great finds! Finally a sensible solution for investment guidance!
 

Now that is a nice chunk of silver. Congrats. The round thing with the slit is a curtain or hem weight as some else already stated.
 

Nice finds. I have a few of them curtain weights that I have found. Nice silver round....I would be ecstatic about it.
 

Outstanding eyeball find. Cant beat a 1 oz. silver round. Agreed on the hem weight / curtain weight.
 

With the exception of domestic silver (at table) that's about the largest silver you could find .Nice find !
 

I have several of this type button. one actually has the white material wrapped around it, along with hem weight from ladies long dresses. Picked them up years ago at a flea market near Monmouth Battle Field in NJ.
