Minelab Explorer SE
comes through for the second time out.
Redid a small park and then later hit an old house that has been pounded to death.
Still managed to get the War Nickel and the smashed I H from the house along with some junk.
4 of the wheat's and the bracelet are from the park.

Can't wait to hit some place old.....

The bracelet is marked 325.
This is the first time ever seeing 325 and not 925.
Is this a lower grade of sterling silver?
It's hallmarked: Victoria Taxco Mexico Sterling 325

Thanks for looking !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOW second time out with that thing is a great hunt also :o congrats on the silver ! I'm not sure about the 325 but i'd say its a lower grade , great hunt with that SE , I cant wait to get my new pro coil for mine :thumbsup:
 
Looks like your SE is doing a number on the silver..keep it up.
 
Thanks guys
I'm using a 8" coil I kind of like it.

Nice digs Bob :)

Are you sure it's not just a mussed-up ".925" ?? The only way for silver to legally have the sterling hallmark is to be .925, besides, I've never heard of .325.
 
Nice, Bob!!! Congrats! :thumbsup:

I'm glad you and your new machine are hitting it off!

Say, you weren't hunting my front yard were ya? :)
 
Great finds. All those old spots will come alive. Try a pro coil after your 8 in. I am sure you will like it.

I called but no answer so I went over and tried the front yard but it was clean so I did your back yard.
I must have put all 20 plugs back pretty good.
By the way, all I found was the bracelet and 19 Chucky Cheese Tokens :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
 
Nice find! That must be some kind of stock or design number as being marked "Sterling" it must be 925.

I think the 9 of the 925 stamp is messed up.
