Default The Dimes nearly had it!

I got out and hunted another local city park. Needless to say I have never found this many dimes on any of my hunts! 15 in all!! I also found my first piece of real SILVER Jewelry (stamped 925 on the back) I also found a token with an eagle on the front and the back reads "no cash value" A zipper tab, fuse and part of a bracelet. Total face value $2.91

Default Congrats on Finding Your 1st Silver

I haven't hunted a park in a very long time but I remember how hard it was to find jewellery in them. WTG!

Smile Congratulations on 925 silver!

It's always great to see that 925 mark on jewelry. Congratulations on your first silver. Many more finds are on the way!
I found a token with an eagle on one side today too. Mine has an "HH" mint mark - does yours? Coldfeet found one in England on the beach too on 01-06-08. Pretty neat.
Happy hunting and many more silver and gold finds!
