NORTHERN NEVADA GHOST TOWN

[Conito@55]

Today me and my friend oldmxrat visited a old ghost town among the pinenuts. It was a difficult hunt, but we managed to rescue some pieces.

I found a thimble and two pieces of jewelry

This piece is unknown to me, if anyone knows about it, please let me know.

It's kind of cool you getting the complete Jigger.
Most of the time it seems just the wheels are recovered.
Well done 👏

I agree with your ID. There are many scrimshaw examples of that - sailors carved them out of whale ivory. Perhaps they reminded them of home.

Good luck to all,
