Silver nugget?

[Mthompson]

I found this with my Garrett Ace 400 while at my folks in Cochise County Arizona. It rings up between 86-89 and it looked like a brown clump of rock when I dug it up. We soaked it in vinegar overnight and it shined up nicely. Dad did a scratch test on the bottom of a coffee mug.
Thoughts?

I suppose it's possible but would lean more towards aluminum or lead. Does it have some weight to it?

Camp fire melted metal, imo.
