I'm new to the forums, i have a bounty hunter tracker IV, i havejust started using it again after a couple of years, today i found what looks like silver but i am unsure. It came up on my detector as a high beep in the tone mode which means silver brass or copper and i'm pretty sure it isn't brass or copper.
I found bigger pieces than this as well in the same area, they were around 3 or 4 inches down in some grassy area just to the side of an old backroad which has been there since the 1800's or longer.
I don't know any other metal that looks like silver apart from steel and my metal detector says it isn't that as it picks it up on the highest setting on discrimation mode. I was wondering if anyone knew what this is or what it could be.
The pictures don't show it properly but you can see most of the silver shining, the rest is covered in a grey coating, it scratches off to silver underneath but i don't know how else to clean it so i'll leave them for now.
