Today's Find 1-17-2020: Brooch.

[Hobbs.]

Today I scratched up what I believe is a silver plated brooch. It weighs in at 9.5 grams and has no markings on it. My guess would be it originated in the mid-1800's.

Your age guess looks right but I wouldn't say it was a brooch.

Getting closer, I think, but it may have gone on leather.
