I went to a few places this morning, dug 96 coins, junk jewelry, & my biggest car yet - about a foot long. I left it there for the next kid to play with. Also got a small bear paw silver ear ring and 2 wheats.

Here's the back side of the bear paw. The 925 is clear to see on the camera but by eyeball it was extremely hard to see, had to use a magnifier. Plus the finding that keeps the ear ring on is stamped 585 which is 14K. And I had to use my most powerful magnifier to see this & had to blow the pic way up. While I know these are not great shakes finds , I just wanted to show how hidden they are sometimes so you won't throw things out before checking them well.

Since gold has jumped up I am not finding what I have in the past, maybe buyers are not as rich anymore. steve in so az
