Today's brooch find

My partner, Cliff Flynn, and I searched a spot today where a house once stood in the late 1800's. Lots of modern trash (house is located next to a tobacco barn that is still in use). I found a lipstick tube with gold plating on it, some misc. junk, and a very nice brooch that still had the gold gilt on it and 2 of the stones in it. The cameo is transparent as seen in the photos. The clasp is still on the back.

That is a very nice brooch.
With finds like that, you must have or will have a
great collection of finds.
Good luck in future hunts.
