I got to hunt an old house teardown this afternoon and had high hopes for some old coinage. Not to be, but I did find this Rolex Bucherer Lucern spoon. Whether it's silver or just plated is a matter of some dispute; I believe plated because there is nothing indicating Sterling or .925. There is a CB 6.9 mark on the back. As for the newspaper with character, I'm still trying to attach a picture.

The only way I know to tell for sure is to file a tiny notch and test with silver solution.
 
Awesome looking spoon regardless
 
That Newsboy Pin is awesome! Wow! Really nice find! Coins are great but relics like that are fantastic! Nice find!
