He was told it might have been traded with the Indians
Maybe copper about 1 and a half inches high, one inch wide, stamped in the metal.
Revolutionary/Lenape Indian area

What do you think guys? Anyone ever see anything like this?

I believe it is vintage, rather than antique... This search has a nearly identical one, but it doesn't open to the picture shown: stamped copper indian thunderbird - Google Search
--Wait-- I located the item: http://www.etsy.com/listing/1181368..._to=US&ga_search_type=all&ga_includes[0]=tags

It was part of a keychain my Mom had one the eye was fake turquoise (blue plastic)it should have a spot on top where it had a small ring attached.I think she got hers from a Reservation store in Arizona.I actually googled vintage thunderbird keychain and yours is on Etsy the exact same one in copper like yours.

Nice find! I remember that my Mom had one made out of silver that looked just like it. It was a keychain. Had a small ring on the eyelet.

This is the back of the item. The one on etsy appears to be a replica. Thanks for the responses so far.
