It's been a while since I posted here, but I'm still having a go occasionally

The other day I found something in the backyard

Stamped 95% Silver Burma

Not convinced, but cool nonetheless, I had ignored the target for a looong time, it was next to an identical target which was half a pair of old scissors, in amongst charcoal and bits of random shite, an old incinerator or fire pit site

dug it out as part of a cleanup and boom!

dig everything

 

[Rockhound]

Wow!!! What an awesome find mate.No doubt about it being silver

Couldn't believe it when it came to light, still very dirty, found some more bits and bobs, brass incense holders, broken pottery, and random bots of stuff that don't burn

 

[Sandta]

Wow .. That is nice
Fancy someone throwing that out
..... Yours now

Great to hear from you again TSB! And stunner find to slap up on the forum! Is there a makers mark or logo visible anywhere? Could be the holy grail It holds a massive amount of precision craftmanship

So the holey grail has finally been found well done bugler.

 

[rocketaroo]

can we see the hallmarks, never found anything marked "95% silver" wow....an old silver goblet!

 

[Ramjet]

WOW. That is just amazing.

 

[Heatho]

Awesome find!

 

[ColinD]

Top notch.

 

[Goldpick]

The Holey Grail was also the first thing to come to my mind, what a chunk of silver to find in your backyard. Hopefully you can find some more hallmarks on it to shed some light on its past/maker.

You can just make out the stamp in the middle pic, I'll try to take a better one tonight

 

[rocketaroo]

oh ok, yep I wasnt looking hard enough.

 

[TTKooAu]

can we see the hallmarks, never found anything marked "95% silver" wow....an old silver goblet!

You can just make out the hallmark in the second pic, running around the bottom edge of the base. if you squint a little....lol

sorry, missed your post

 

[TheSilentBugler]

My phone refuses to focus on the stamp

"95% SILVER BURMA" is all I can find

 

[rocketaroo]

seems to be a real hallmark, could be pretty old.
