I ducked out of work early today and headed to the beach for a few hours after dealing with some water issues in the basement 🤬
I found 4 rings today including my first 22kt @ 5.2g. It broke in the little container I wear around my neck that’s reserved for keepers. I’m doing electrolysis on the other 3 rings and will post pics of those. I think the two silver dimes are a barber and a merc. Lots of spoons today, 1 of which was sterling.

That's a olde butter! Very nice save!

That one silver crusty is a little spooky once you cleaned it...
 
:dingding:Great color on that yellow! I think you found one of Satan's lost rings on that silver so be careful as today is FRIDAY the 13th!.:yikes:
 
Hilarious. I totally thought of that movie when I cleaned that ring up.

Nice job man, that broken one has a great color! Always fun to get the crud off the older silvers, you never know what they might be!
