Can you help me with this one..Thanks.
Hello Again,
You guys really helped me out a lot the other day on knowing that the pictures I showed
was an organ reed. I'm really not sure if I should post this here because it's really not as
to say a civil war item even though it was found at a battle field site. I've had it posted on
three other forums on here.I'm getting viewers but no replies and I guess this is my last
chance to find out anything on here. Could you please tell me anything at all about this
also the possible value and age.
I found this a few years ago while metal detecting a civil war battle site.
I believe it is a antique hair brett but not sure.I was told it is silver and
hand made but has no markings on it at all and also at one time it had
three stones on it but they were missing when it was found.You guy's are great on this site
but not that they aren't on the other forums....I guess no one relly knows anything about it.
Thanks,
ROCKMAN51

It really looks like it is handmade. Very pretty and one of a kind find.

Hi gypsyheart,
Thank you for the reply.....about a year ago I took it to a Jewler...She's the one that told me it was hand
made and made of Silver.....She said she didn't know all to much about antique jewelry....She also said,
like you ,that it definately was one of a kind. She also said to her she couldn't put a price on something
like that....She said to her something like this is priceless....I think I better find someone who deals
with things like antique jewelry....If you think of anything else please let me know....I have it posted on
a couple other forums on here but still no replys.
