Default Silver Ring, Mystery Silver, Silver Dime.
Got out for a hunt tonight; headed for a spot that has been very good to me lately with silver coins and a few silver rings. It still has not rained and the ground is like concrete. My hands are killing me right now. But I'm glad I got out; I scored a nice silver ring, and a badly wounded silver Rosie, in addition to a small item that I am certain is silver but can not identify. It is thin, has small holes on either side, and teeth on one end as if to grip fabric or something. Any guesses would be great.

Total for the evening was 31 coins worth $2.22 including the Rosie and three wheat pennies. And my first crochet needle too!

Happy hunting!

Very nice Silver ring Z. Too bad with the Rosie but a keeper none the less. Is that a knitters hook? Just a guess. Good hunt..

Those are great digs! That ring is a lot like one my mom used to wear back in the 70's.
