Hi everyone. Well looky what I found. Thought I'd share it and get people's opinions on it. I believe she is from a a British Naval Ship, around 1824-1830. This is obviously after quite a bit of conservation work.
Enjoy

Reminds me of the artifact that came off the Brass Telescope Wreck in the Fisher's E-89 area off Melbourne Beach, found by Carl Lazzeri.

This thing is awsome, it still has the glass in both ends as well. When I pulled it up it was completely retracted and covered in about 1/3 inch of sand encrustation. Its really beautiful though. Found a piece of an Octant as well, I need to find the rest of that one too!!!
