    Yes, as the Stealth Diggers can attest they are a common find. The one at the bottom of the picture is solid sterling silver....only my second of those I've ever found. It is engraved with the date of 1948.

    Thanks Drew. Yeah, I went out once last Monday and hit the woods for my first hunt in 2017 but we got 6 inches of snow last night and it's 5 degrees this morning. Bummer!
