Metal Detecting at Atherton HS


I metal detected with Mark yesterday at Barrett Middle School and we didn't have a lot of luck. Mark found 2 pennies, one of them a 'wheat penny', and I found about .60 and a large drill bit. Today I went over to Atherton HS for about and hour and a half and found 83 cents and this silver earring with the initials G.B.F. on it, and inside was stamped 925. I don't know what the 925 means, but it looks silver to me.

The Internet tells me that the marking "925" is used to denote run-of-the-mill sterling silver, which is 92.5% silver. Good find!
