1 more silver

[Todd Pickens]

I got to the swimmen hole just before dark today and had just enough time to get about 20 minutes of detecting in. I was digging a pocket spill, in the dry sand, that was driving me nuts. When I was sure there was nothing but zincs left I swung to my right and got an overload tone on my Trac. I lifted the coil and swung over it again and I got a 12/47 and a perfect silver sound. It was dark enough I couldn't see the ground so I was thinking I had hit a pile of melted beer cans. I used the light on my Pro Pointer and found this square object just laying in the sand.
My wife tells me its a Brighton Belt buckle and it is Silver. There is a stamp on the inside but its not readable.

It was an ear piercing sound. You cant miss big silver on top of the ground.
I live in central Texas so most of my detecting is done here or down at the coast.
Brighton Belts are high end BLING belts. From what I have seen they put lots of silver all over them. I think somebody had to get neked to loose this.
