Wow, eh?

He brought it by and showed it to me not long after he dug it. Said he thought it was a blob of lead casting waste or a piece of slag at first, but then the brightness of the silver clued him in.

And then he saw the stamps on it.

    oh my! now that's certainly better than a sharp stick in the eye. Was it found in the water?

    Quite near the water, apparently. At the marshes' edge.

    One of my favorite field trips in Elementary school was exploring the salt-water marshes on Jekyll Island. I think of all the beaches and marshes and barrier islands I've visited and can't help but wonder how many of these gems slipped right by me :-/
