Indian with surfboard and first Silver

[Rich jaws]

Had a lot of targets to dig today. My first piece of silver and a little over $3.00 in clad. A bunch of decaying pennies. Also dug this Indian with what looks like a surfboard lol. A small caliber bullet casing and a key also for the day. Working a local baseball field.

When I first pulled the piece out of the dirt it looked the item in his hand was a surfboard. Probably meant to be a shield of some sort though. Lol

Great finds, Rich Jaws, Your Native American lead figure was made by the Barclay toy company between 1935-1941, and listed in their original catalog as: #754 Indian Chief, tomahawk and shield. Your Chief has a little battle damage with the right arm holding the tomahawk missing. Happy Hunting, Sub

Thanks Sub. Truly appreciate the information. Much more info than I could have ever hoped for!

Lol, I'm still thinking it's about what he is standing on. Great finds.

 

[Rich jaws]

Yes, original paint is on it Dave. Bootybandit had it right, it looks like he is holding a wake board. He is from the 40s and was way ahead of his time Aussie. Lol
