Item: 142  Description: Rams Horn: This specimen is part of a Wood Block Rams Horn. With the wood missing, of course. The note on the stem says this was found in Nevada. That may mean it was used on the Transcontinental Telegraph Line completed in 1861. That’s the line that put the Pony Express out of business. This specimen likely represents an important part of US history. The item is 4.5 inches tall.
