Found this medallion about 8” deep at an 1800’s-1920 site today, W PA. Seems to depict a Native American and a Settler. Eagle above the shield with a windmill. Initial thought are some kind of peace treaty medal. The location is near the far western border of the Treaty of Stanwix 1784 line. My guess is a 100 year anniversary medal, so 1884 time range, but just s wild guess. Or could be a simple Roy Rogers type fan club prize from the 1900's? Anyone recognize the medal or symbolism?
