Title: Gold Guilded Brooch Post by: staterchaser on September 12, 2011, 05:14:50 PM Found this last week while out with Nobby and Ray in Somerset. Gave it a clean then put it in my 'Maybe Box', one of those which you return to and think perhaps??? It looks like it is guilded in gold and would have been quite impressive at one time. It measures 32 mm across and weighs 15 grams.
Most of our finds dated back to the 18th century, so perhaps it's not that old. Any thoughts? :-\ Title: Re: Gold Guilded Brooch Post by: Mike on September 12, 2011, 05:19:37 PM close but no cigar :D :D :D
