Found a silver one while cleaning a batch
« on: October 25, 2010, 12:30:17 am »
Was cleaning some today and ran into this silver one. Not sure where to start with this but here is a picture of it. Anyone know where to start or even recognize it at all?

That's a great clue. Here is what I found so far that resembles it and looks like the one.

The condition is not perfect ;) but still a nice find in an uncleaned lot.
