I posted this in another group but still haven't been able to get a positive ID On it. It came from a bigger rock that I hit with a hammer looking for some stones for the tumbler. When it first went in, parts of it looked metallic. After a couple days I pulled it out, I thought maybe it was Mica so

Some of these pics are during the process of me shining it up. The first pic is the most recent

I'm assuming this is a piece of Mica? I busted a rock open looking for stuff to put in the tumbler and saw this. I just wanna make sure it's not like some rare earth mineral before I resume shaping it

1942 DDO?

So the 1942 42 over 41 mercury dime is a pretty well known error, but there isn't much information about a 1942 over 1942 ... I'm pretty sure this is a ddo.

Anyone know where this ring may have come from? I think it was my grandfather's and I think it may have something to do with the air force but it also might have been my great grandfather's. I don't see any hallmarks or anything. I'm just curious where it came from.

So if you were buying a "miniature salt dip bowl" would you expect to be able to put 4 apples and a plant in it? This lady did.

I think I want to use this one for my next watch. Definitely my favorite looking Mexican coin. I like the silver and gold color contrast

I found this in the woods in the dirt. I had no idea the ancients were in Pennsylvania. One this perfect has to be worth a fortune!

Now this is interesting... Initially I thought you may have been damaged. But after looking at the edge I'm not so sure. Any thoughts?

Could use a lil professional help here. I found this rock in north eastern ohio just now. I never really saw gold in its host or matrix, not sure the terminology. But to me this looks a little too yellow to be pirite. So what do ya think? Should I try cleaning it up?

Im just curious, is this a recognizable Hallmark to anyone or is it damage or something. Not the 10k but the mark next to it. It's a thin 17" chain , I included pics to show its style. Very light. About . 40g
