Find of the day Jamestown VA in CT

[Cooperscoppers]

Found this beautiful piece on a private dig in the blazing 96 degree heat today I’m not sure but I think it’s for the 300 years of Jamestown what do you think? Looks like a tall brick building on the hammer?

Great save of a piece of history. Looks to be a watch fob as well.

Yes I think your right

That’s a sweet watch fob. Before WW1, everyone had a pocketwatch, so fobs were a popular accessory. That slot is the give away.

Congrats and good luck.

Congrats on the watch fob rescue. It looks to be in nice shape and it's not an advertising fob. Probably an Exposition piece.
