To tell you the truth I didn't know I had so many either. Most of them were not terribly exciting finds but when you line them all up on a tea spoon it starts to look like a pretty good heap eh?

I need to get it looked at before I brag about it too much. Found another ring tonight, an old wedding band that has seen better days.

No, it was plated with some silver metal (silver?) but it is kind of crusty like it has been peeling off.

The coin picture didn't seem to work for some reason... will try again. Some of the nicer and more interesting silver.

I also forgot to post a picture of these watches, the one is an actual gold watch and a couple of the others were nice Swiss watches in their day.

That gold watch you have there is so close to my one its not funny. Do you have any brand on yours? Or anything else that may help find if they were similar in any way? Does yours have markings on the inside of the back case?
The exterior design is extremely similar.

It looks like there is something written on the face but I can't read it through the crud. The back and front have hinges like they are supposed to open but I can't get either to open. My first instinct is to jam a butterknife in there and pry like crazy but I have been resisting the temptation. I found it in Christchurch so it wouldn't surprise me if there were two.

I am leaving the weights off which seems to greatly offend certain peoples sensibilities, but here are some lures I dug.

A hoof pick, and I think the other thing might be a tuning fork, but not real sure.
