Found this in a 1900 abandoned town. I thought it was a squished bullet at first and almost chucked it. It appears to be a woman with a child in her arm and a round thing that looks like a rattle in the other hand. Does anyone recognize this? No idea what it is made out of.
Tiny religious figurine?

Although this is not the same figure, these little religious figurines were often carried for luck I believe. http://www.andersonmilitaria.com/Web_Pages/misc/mexwar/9MCW.htm
