Metal piece found shaped like a man's ***** - 2/23/2009 10:36:41 PM    kranked003   Posts: 74 Joined: 1/8/2009 From: Pittsburgh, PA Status: offline You be the judge of this one.  This was found at the bottom of a stream during a kayak trip.  It closely resembles a mans member.  I have no proof of the type of metal but it does not rust and was very shiny when found.  It has been cleaned a little.  I have people guess it is aluminum, but it seems too heavy to be that.  I think it is silver, possibly something that was melted down.  Could it be titanium?  I have to believe it is fairly old though. Take a look and tell me what you all think. Attachment (1) Post #: 1

It could be a few things. You say it's to heavy to be aluminum, then its def not titanium, which wouldn't appear like that in nature. If it is soft , heavy, and melts with a lighter it's lead. If the silver stuff starts to smoke don't breath it in. It may be gold covered in mercury, but I doubt it. If so it's one luck find. It may also be platinum, but nuggets are rare, and one that size would be priceless. Probably silver, and a beautiful specimen if so. There are also radioactive heavy metals so be aware of that. What are the size and weight? < Message edited by CanYaDigIt -- 2/23/2009 11:15:45 PM > (in reply to kranked003) Post #: 3

If it were silver it would have been tarnished when you found it. If it is white metal, used for toys and costume jewelry, it should melt pretty easy but it does look like aluminum. A chunck of gold that covered with mercury would be very heavy and the mercury would come off on your hands. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ http://www.bornagainamerican.org (in reply to CanYaDigIt) Post #: 5

There is supposed to be a meterorite for evey four square feet. At least thats what they said on the science channel. Some body must of stole some of mine cause I short a few thousand. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ http://www.bornagainamerican.org (in reply to cyberdigger) Post #: 13

All you have to do is determine the specific gravity of it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_gravity You basically just put it in a container of water and then measure how much water it displaces then weigh it. You are just comparing the weight of the object to  the weight of its equivalent volume of water. I expect you will get a value very close to 2.7 < Message edited by GuntherHess -- 2/25/2009 11:49:55 AM > _____________________________ FREE Online Medicine Guide - http://www.antiquemedicines.com/MedicineNexus/Nexus.htm Web Site - http://antiquemedicines.com Email : mknapp@antiquemedicines.com (in reply to Just Dig it) Post #: 19
