    Great finds. That itch was scratched but you'll get another itch. That big silver looks great, along with the St. Christopher medal and the other religious coin.

    Wow... that's a chunk of silver.
    Any chance we could get a closer picture of it? I'd love see the detail in that baby. :->

    My best guess (not much help) is the coin with the 3 archangel names, triangle and then Hebrew on the other side is not of Jewish origin as there would no English on a Jewish amulet. It's of Christian or even Masonic origin. Some of the Hebrew on the other side doesn't make sense but I'm NO authority. Highly symbolic and great find. I really like it and it seems like I've seen this one before. Many things dug only lead to more questions and hopefully new knowledge for us who dig the past.
    The best treasures are the lasting friendships we make.[img width=47 height=70]http://i1005.photobucket.com/albums/af176/idigther/Detecting%20finds/0439c987.jpg[/img] using V3i, IDX Pro, Coinmaster Pro, Surf PI Pro DF mod, Sov GT, Excalibur 2, Fisher CZ 21, Garrett AT Pro - I'm ready! Where shall we go?
