Last hunts finds.

[sgtled3533]

So I haven't been hunting much in the past week or so. Work has picked up a lot due to the nice weather. So I really can't complain...but I think we can all agree we'd rather be out hunting than workin

Anyways, I went to the old "haunted mansion" site (Wolfe Manor) in Clovis California about 8 or 9 days ago. Not a whole lot of coin signals out there unfortunately, but there's been some small relics and other finds pop up. I got a broke pocket knife, my FIRST thimble, and some door knobs. Oh and also the handle to some utensil, but it's kinda beat up. I was most happy with the thimble being that it was my first one. It reads "Her Majesty Thimble" and "England" beneath that. Kinda neat. Found a few others in a google search but don't know the history. Any info would be great!! Thanks everyone. HH

Oh yeah, also got a buckle and one other cool find: it looks like an old face portrait out of ivory or something. Not sure about that style. Again, any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone!!

"Face portrait" is called a Cameo pendant. Neat finds!

Nice variety of finds! I like the thimble and the tiny cameo. Cool looking knife too.

A cameo pendant huh? Sweet!! I like it! Thanks for the info! Yeah it's pretty neat. Any idea what the face portion is made out of? Maybe ivory??

Nice finds, congrats! That English thimble is a really cool find.
I think we would all agree on this poll.

Go to work? Go out swinging?

Thank you! Yeah I like it. I've always admired everyone else's thimble finds. Love when I see silver ones, but I'll take this one for my first

And I think you're right...everyone here should agree: go swinging over go to work! hehe

I think the cameo could be alabaster.Have you tried the old Tarpey train station between third and fourth? The building was moved(now the Clovis visitor center) but that was it's original location.
