LC, Indians, old dog tag, etc...

[Wallhangers]

Decided to spend the afternoon hitting a yard I have been watching. Owner was home, ground was moist, good to go. I only hit a small portion and will get back there soon. In the mix is an 1839 LC, two Indians (82, 94), 1903 dog license, 2 rich gilt flat buttons and some kind of decorative piece (might be a bridal rosette?)

Sweet LC and love the old dog tag. I hope to find some older tags someday. WTG on the greenies, too.

Nice Digs, I like when the Indian Heads come out Green like that.

That "rosette"--is it lead-filled? It looks the right size.

If that is gilding on it, aluminum jelly or lemon juice will turn it into a REAL Eye-Popper!

Yeah, Buck, lead on the backing which made me think it could be a rosette. I will have to try cleaning it as you stated, thanks. Any idea of the era of that style of rosette? I have found quite a few different styles over the last couple of years, I like them!
