Well the rain gave me a break today so I went and hunted the first two of the new properties
I have aquired. Both were fairly small lots. Didn't find a lot, mostly clad and mem's. I finally just quit digging pennies. I swear, I think someone flew over Mississippi dumping bags of memorial pennies. This F75 is a penny magnet!. Check out this pile of clad and mem's. $3.74. I did manage to find one wheat, 1941. Another Mississippi Sales Tax Token. This makes #8. Then on the second property I found the pendant. About 4 deep. It passed the magnet test and tested positive for Sterling with the chem's. On the back it has aco inside of a larger C. Under that I believe it has the letters STG. Anyway I am assuming its Sterling unless someone has a better idea. Not one for the jar, but silver all the same. By the way, after I finished the hunt I went and checked out the other twenty eight properties. Don't think I am going to find a lot. The oldest houses were probably built in the 50s. But you never know.Thanks for looking and HH

Hey Cody, don't give up on the houses from the 50's. Rob and I did one and we got 3 silvers.

Yeah, the one I got came with the stone. Chem's for silver, 10, 14, 18 & 22K Gold. And Platinum. On the silver if its bright red, true silver. Dark red, cream, or grayish-brown, Sterling. 77%-90%. I have found that the dark red is 925. They are not expensive either. Got mine off Amazon.
