Indian head pendant

[coin1921]

Found this pendant yesterday in a town burnt out in early 20's
On bottom left is a swastika symbol so I am thinking pre-1920's?
Stone is missing but it still has the four claws that held it

That isn't really a swastika, is it? If so, what is this thing? Cool find one way or the other but it's got me curious

LOOOKS TO BE A PENDANT FOR A INDIAN MOTORCYCLE , MAYBE. I THINK OLDSMOBILE HAD A SIMILAR EMBLEM .

As I remember the bent cross had been used by many cultures, India for one and I believe the Navajo is another. it's only bad now because it was used as the emblem of the German Nazi Party.

Yes it is. Before Germany made it evil, it was a good luck symbol. I have tokens with it on them and the indians also considered it good luck. So it probably predates the 30's anyway. It is a unique piece. Thanks for sharing.
