Bored troday so thought I'd post some unusual finds pics. First are 2 spurs that I dug at the same location but quite a ways apart. Both have nickel silver inlay.

Next is a marble egg with metal decorations. I detected it in a heap of fire & ashes on a city lot.

Here's some native copper found one piece at a time over the years. The largest one was detected in a dirt driveway under a carport - go figure.

Lastly, here's an eye glass case. Nice designs and all silver. It is stamped sterling. steve in so az

I like the native copper, steve !!!! where did you come across the native copper ??? I have found small pieces in Wisconsin.........
 
Dooby - Arizona is known for the 3 C's = cotton, cattle & copper :) The nearby mountains have several big time copper mines. Steve
 
I also love the egg. And I love collecting those rouge compacts. They're such fun to find.

They are really unique but I like the copper and the spurs. Did you find that egg in Phoenix? Ha Ha
Do I need to explain that comment to anyone??

Spit - don't have to explain it here = Phoenix is the Az state capitol, about 125 miles north of me. Steve
