Do Indians wear rings?

[Ammoman]

Right to the point...no reason to beat around the bush, we do that enough when we are out detecting.

Here is a combination of today and yesterdays finds from two permissions.
The first permission was a house built in 1900 and the second permission was built in 1917

A picture of all the finds. Lots of stuff, 2 cars a fork, 1 old necklace with copper leaves,
1 rosie dime 1 merc, 3 buffs, 3 indians, 11 wheats ranging from 1917 to 1944, 2 tokens, one fob and other stuff as well.



3 Indians and a Ring. The cool thing about the ring is, I pulled the ring and 1900 Indian from the same hole! Do Indians wear rings?
Considering the house was built in 1900, it makes it likely these were dropped around that time frame.


Two tokens and a Fob.


Not sure what the token is with the Egyptian symbols but its cool.


I particularly like the 3D fob as well.


2 Buffs with dates of 1920 and 1923


Pontiac made two versions of this token. I believe this is the early version of the two.


Necklace with copper leaves Modern Watch pendent


And finally a metal thing that looks like an ice sickle



Happy hunting everyone!

OOPS...i need to take close up pictures of the buffs...they both have dates 1920 and 1922

Happy hunting everyone!

Nice finds. Is it possible that the fob is a large cent that has been stamped with that face? I know they did that with some silver coins.

Are you sure that's not a Barber Repouse or Pop Out Coin Fob? The face looks poorly done, but LIBERTY is very clear in the crown area.

Cool Finds!

Your Egyptian item is an Egyptian Magic Coin.

They are officially tokens, sometimes described as "good luck coins" or "magician coins".

They are usually 32 mm wide, made of bronze or brass, sometimes they are silver or gold plated.

They have Egyptian symbols on them, usually a Pharaoh on one side and a Sphinx and Pyramids on the other side.

They usually have no text inscriptions but some have advertising added.

They have been made in the United States since at least 1905 when one appeared in a Sears catalog.

They were sold or handed out by carnivals, fairs, promoters, magicians, and other groups.

They are frequently found in accumulations of coins or souvenirs and also by metal detectors.

One made an appearance in a 1946 film "Duel in the Sun" as a medallion worn by the film's star, Jennifer Jones.

Look for "Egyptian Magic Coin" on the internet for information about these items.

Note: Your token is a rare variety with a swastika on it.

Thanks for looking,
I am pretty sure its just a fob. To light and thin to be a coin and the back side is blank.

LOL obviously Indians do wear rings because I found a ring buried with one.

 

[Professor of Engineering]

Very nice coin and relic hunting; congratulations!

 

[ecmo]

Congratulations on a very nice batch of finds. Me thinks those permissions had not been hit before or at least poorly.
I'm wondering if that thing "that looks like an icicle might be the tube inside an old fountain pen. You stuck the pen tip inside the inkwell, lifted a lever on the pen body and drew ink into the reservoir. Just a guess.

 

[against the wind]

Excellent hunt,,
When I was in India, I noticed that most Indian women wore jewelry. Especially rings.
Congratulations
