Just took the articles to my jeweler for verification. He gave everything a thumbs up. I bought one of those silver kits online, didn't do a thing, oh well. The silver came from a little rise in a field I have been hunting, 2.75 ounces. The field was just turned and planted so I will not be able to get back until the late fall to see if anything was missed. The arrow head came from a short hunt today. I did a double take when I first noticed the notches. It has a very odd shape. It is 1 1/4 inches across the base.

I agree with Cru on the non silver instead of silver, also lean more towards what Steve said for you unusual arrowhead.. Don

Sorry, thought everyone saw the rabbit or hare, thats part of the print block image.

The ones without letters or images are spacers.

OK, I find these print blocks all the time, they are never silver, so your kit was right & don't use that jeweller again. Unless you want to sell Lead-alloy at silver prices.

I agree with Cru on the non silver instead of silver.

Very well could be, I'm not the expert. His silver test made the metals turn milky white, and he pronounced it silver.

I actually see it too and with the small lines all running horizontally in the background I'd say it was purposefully done.
