went to a new spot metal detecting sunday

the property owner says that eleanor roosevelt use to ride her horse on the property

then i found this sliver art deco brooch

note the great seal at the bottom

this could really be a gift giving to one of the best first lady's this country has ever had
i am waiting for some more information from The Historian of the U.S. Department of State.

Looks like a sweethearts brooch. Loads of these made during both WW's & they come in all types. It was meaningful to the lady the soldier gave it too. They probably had that type of dog. (They always had some kind of regimental insignia, as it showed support to the cause & the regiment)

Seems like too much of a coincidence that it has a Scottish Terrier on it to just be a random find...

You're correct. It isn't the Presidential Seal. Where did you find the information regarding attaching the Great Seal to things gifted to the President(s)?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seal_of_the_President_of_the_United_States " The Graphic and Calligraphy Office will approve of the seal's use in application of official gifts, an example being its application to a silver cigarette box presented as a gift to Franklin Roosevelt"

the brooch is made up of a combination of the scottie and the cow brooch...how every the great seal is different the one on the brooch i have has a lot more detail then the one used by truart

If it is it's an absolutely astounding find! Do you have a pic of the back of the brooch?

I think it’s got to be hers. I have a positive gut feeling.

This could possibly be some serious history right here. I’m mean personal history of a First Lady. Pretty mind blowing.

Crusader thinks it was mass produced back then and it's just a random find. I'm saying it would be an amazing coincidence finding that brooch at a place Eleanor Roosevelt frequented and it wasn't her brooch.

Does that explanation clarify it for you?
