Indian Chief button?

[Captain Caveman]

I found this at a local park this morning. It is colored and the face is 3d. Does anyone know what it is?

Could it have broken off a ring?

Good point; it looks like it may have. At first, I though it was a button, but no. BTW, the two photos may not be an exact match, but they are really close.

There are many many generic Indian chiefs out there. Its close but not a match. We dont even know what size it is. However it would be interesting to read the link to see if its a ring or what. crispin can you post the link please? Is that a ring crispin?

Is it silver, brass or pot metal? I finding some colored enameled rings. It most likely came that way.

Thanks for all the replies so far. I don't know what it is made of, but it is light. It is definitely lighter than I would expect it to be if it were made from silver, but I'm no expert.

I dont think its a button. My guess is a cheap gumball machine ring. The band was probably crimped on and the enamelng is probably original.

Thanks for all the answers. I think it looks really cool.
