One of my favorites ~ Stuart Crystal

Stuart Crystal late 1600's the top piece of an earing, and the bottom piece would have been several times larger. I found this on a very small site with no stone work... what the hell was it doing there????? Almost went in the trash pocket.. thought it was it was a piece of lead shot at first glance...

I only got two silver coins this year and you have seen them both. I have probably dug a total of less then 24 silver coins in 10 years.... but I got four reales, and a silver hammered shilling all in New England

That truly is an outstanding find. Definitely worthy of this subforum. I've seen a very similar ones posted on Tnet some years back. Awesome recovery!
