I should say nice shot! Certainly very accurate. Interesting way to dispose of a nice spoon even if it is only plated silver.

Thought I had something good with a drilled silver dollar size item that was encrusted with dirt. Cleaned it up at home and it was a brass disc with virtually nothing on it. Arggh. :icon_scratch:

Found the spoon in the woods and have pictured the rest of the stuff found. No old coins lately. ???

By the way, I watched "Diggers" the other night and they found a lead round ball. Up on the screen pops up "Potential Value $10". I'm rich!! :laughing7:

What is the largest of the three round objects in the top right corner? I found something like it.
 
The brass disc looks like a pendant that must have once had something painted on it. Or maybe it's a pet id tag that was never engraved. Those three round objects in the top right look like flattened lead round balls am I right? I have a spoon like that, gets worn out from eating nails for breakfast lol.

You are right on! Those 3 items are large flattened round balls.
 
Congratulations!!
 
Congrats to you. I WISH round balls were worth 10 bucks, lol. Just another example of how those shows are a load of crap.
