Any Ideas on this Item's Age and Origin??

Hello. I found this "bracelet" about 6-IN down in the main street center median of a small town established in the 1920's. At only 2-IN in diameter it seems small for a bracelet. It is engraved on the inside "SOLID COPPER". Does anyone recognize this? Thanks for the look. HH.

Here is one on ebay. Not much info here either but I would guess 70's era.

Yeah, there was a fad in the 70's with these bracelets. Supposed to help with arthritis pain.

Yep, we all agree. Here's an eBay review of such items (near bottom of page); eBay Guides - Copper Jewelry History, Health Healing
I noticed elsewhere that now the copper jewelers have decided they also have to have magnets in them for maximum healing power.

I still use mouse bones, charcoal from a Yule log, and a bloody chicken foot to heal most things.......guess I'm just old fashioned.
