A Real Keeper

[Jay Banta]

I got out to hunt a yard and had a great time. Not a lot of coins and mostly modern, but I still found some nice relics. I got a brass lock that I gave to the homeowner for their display and a really nice brooch that they allowed me to keep. I’m thinking of finding some Jade for it and turning it into a necklace. It’s really nice and I love it!!

Congratualtions on the nice finds!

Dirt- It is made of copper, I believe. I haven’t tried to polish it to see.

Thank y’all very much for the comments. I liked the lock but was happy to give it to them.

I found a brooch exactly like yours a long time back.....it is brass and is missing the decorative centerpiece as well. Very intricate details on them.
