It seems copper or brass. I found it at a War of 1812 military training area. It has two small metal peaces on the edge, which may be where a chain could have mounted. This may have been a medallion that hanged off a chain to be warn around the neck. Seems like there is some type of image on one side. Any guesses? :dontknow:

this is a guess but looks like some kind of presidential token that had a loop soldered on to be a watch fob.

scratch the presidential token part :tongue3: I just realized that what I thought was a left facing bust of a president in the first pic was just my eyes playin tricks :D

Interesting, as it dried a more distinctive image is appearing. Looks like a roman with helmet or GI. :-\

I think you should wait for IP to look at this before posting a green check.

Both the pics came from a 1909 Sears Roebuck catalog. In 1909 the latest craze for watch fobs and plated coin like jewelry was Roman, Greek and Egyptian motiffs. Were there TOC finds in this area?

turn of the century (1900)
This area is public so an artifact from any era from 1600's is possible. :)
