Default Late Night Silver - My First Silver is a James Avery Ring!

Decided to hit this park late last night, that I had been researching for a while. It is located in an old part of town. Last dig of the night, came up as just above a nickel and 8 inches down. At first it looked like a bottle cap, but then came the happy dance! SILVER!!! Here are some pics:

Thanks everyone. The rest of the weekend slowed down considerably. I found an old ornate door nob and what looks to be a silver fleur de lis. I can't tell if it is silver or not. Any good ideas for testing?
