Default First silver!

Well not a silver coin. I was out at the local soccer field today. There was a big tournament over the weekend. So, where there are people things are dropped. My big find of the day was a delicate silver chain with a silver heart that has diamond chips in it. The ace 250 read between a nickel and pull tab at 2". Once I pinpointed it, I got down on one knee and you could see the glimmer of the heart just underneath the trampled blades of grass. The clasp was not broke. So I'm guessing that it fell out of a pocket or such. Anyways the necklace is my first find worth posting.Oh, found some clad and a bunch of these metal covers that go over some kind of drink. They are showing up as solid nickels. I'm confident there are more good finds to come.

I know! I am old school! I love the way the sounds talk to me. I don't much like the computer telling me what it thinks it is!
