Question

Picture0068
Dear Bill and Sally,
In my back yard, approxamitely 2ft in the ground, I found a silver bullet. I don't know much about it. Could you help me out?
Another question, how much % of metal is silver?
Thank you,
Rhiannon B.M

Hello Rhiannono - I'm not an expert on ammunition collectibles but I did find a site that may be of some help to you.  Just copy the below url into your browser address field and hit enter. It looks like they have a wealth of information.

Also below is a good site explaining the differences in silver quality and sterling %.

Hope these sites can help - and keep that silver bullet in case you have any werewolves about !
