Default My finds from President's Day

Okay, so my buddy and I went hunting on Monday and had a really great time I found a few items. One is a button that almost scared the crud outta me. It's some sort of coat button that looks just like an indian head. I also found, with Michael's help, a pendant that looks like it used to be painted. Let me know what y'all think.

I know, I know. Don't be jealous, Shawn. What we have is SPECIAL.


I was scared because I thought for a second that it was a REAL indian head nickel.
