    Yerbooty's Booty

    This is about a week's worth of finds from numerous short hunts . No big deal but I want to keep in practice on how to post in case I find something worth posting . lol The two silver Rosies are both 54s , the Merc's date is unreadable but I'll take her . The wheats are 44s,46s and 55? I found and disposed a couple of pouchfulls of garbage and glass also . This stuff is from four different places that have been beat to death by myself and others for years .The religious medal is not silver but an alloy with nickel , copper and zinc . It will leave a green stain on your skin . I was bummed when I was told about that .In the back bottom where they usually stamp STERLING it
    says GERMAN . :-\

    Pulling good targets from hard-hit sites is no small accomplishment. It does take quite a bit of effort and skill, that's for sure. Nice digs, Sheik!

    Good haul for the week. The German stamp probably refers to German Silver - no silver content but it is hard to tell it from silver when cleaned. Steve in so az

    I should but most of those posts are clowning around BS-ing and telling other folks how great their finds are . lol Not a lot of mine are with good finds so I need the practice . Your right finding that last beat up Merc rivaled some of the days gone by when I'd pick up a Barber . thumbsup01

    Thanks to all for your kind words . thumbsup01

    Nice stuff Shiek.
    Three silver coins for the week would keep me happy... especially from well searched sites.
    Best of luck on your next outing.
