Was out hunting a WW2 AAF base and signals were scarce until I hit a signal
that rang up as a quarter on my DFX. What I uncovered was this nice set of sterling Aircrew wings. Was a very pleasant surprise.

Finding silver is always great, but finding silver with history is awesome.
Congratulations!

Not me. People earned those wings. Definitely a great find though.

Any vintage military find is a real treasure. On my bucket list if I should be so lucky.
