I was at an old house site and found lots of older
clad a few wheats and then neat piece of jewerly.
Can anyone guess an approximate age for this?
Do bears $%^& in the forest? YES!! Old! 1920's or before. I would put my money on the teens.
Clean it up and take a close shot. I deal in antique jewelry and if I see a close-up I can better judge this.

I'll get a closer pic in a bit. :thumbsup:

A closer picture would help, but something else to consider would be scale. Put something in the picture so that people can tell the size of the object, a coin, a ruler.. something like that. I almost always use a common coin (for the U.S. anyway).

Oh it's a nice piece by the way.. looking forward to the "closer" pictures when you post them.

~HAPPY HUNTING~

Thank you Gemee ! I got a closer pic for you also !
