First time out in a while

[2moshers]

Have not metal detected/treasure hunted much lately but did manage to hit an old vacant yard here in town tonight that I have detected before. Managed to find a 1919 Wheat Cent, a 1970 nickel, a 1972 quarter, an old concave pewter Indian Chief Head pendant, and 2 Large Cents - 1838 + 1843. Any info on the pendant would be appreciated. Thanks for looking.View attachment 1482507

Congats on the nice finds. Love the pendant. Finding the large cents is always fun, the one on the right almost looks like its made of steel. I assume its just photo glare.

Photo glare and a little more time worn. Soaking in Olive Oil should help.

They are in really good condition for almost 200 yrs. Out of 15 I found this year maybe 2 looks like yours. My farm fields with fertilizers and cow pies just destroy the coins.

Cow pies never hurt anything, it's the fertilizers.

Nice going the on the coppers, liking the Chief. Was thinking it might be a small rosette, then again I looked at the actual size and thought way too small for that.
