Small piece of ore with silver and maybe turquoise in it. Found it in a field but nearest silver mine is probably 200 miles away.
 
pics hopefully.

More odd than impressive.
High tone, silver dime numbers.

During the com stock load they were digging for gold and dumping high silver ore that was blue as waste
 
Sweet find. There was a silver load discovered by a sheep herder in Nevada. He was digging a pit to cook in. The hill he dug into was almost solid silver. He took his rocks to a local way station and asked if it was valuable. They told him no so he left the rock. It was there for a couple years before some assayors saw the “rocks”. It lead to one of the wealthiest silver veins ever discovered but nobody could ever find the sheep herder but they did find his cooking pit. Maybe you should look for more of that rock!
