Default Ugly Silver

Got out this afternoon for a short hunt in the lot next to my yard. Got several pennies that were 1967, 1969, one wheat that was too dirty to see a date on, a 1971 quarter and a neat button. I was thinking to myself that with dates such as those there had to be some silver somewhere. I walked another five feet and got a solid dime tone. Dug a nice big plug. Checked my hole and not there. Checked the plug and it was there. Broke off a small piece and no signal. Went to pull off another section of plug and saw a silver edge. Pulled it out and it was one ugly no date Rosie. It is still silver though. Woo Hoo!!

Looks like somebody left it in the tumbler way to long!

Still exciting that you found silver
