    I know this isn't a coin but maybe someone can help. I think it's a watch fob. It was found in a yard next to where some miner shacks used to be. The area was 1st used in the 1860s and last used in the 1930s.

    Can anyone tell me what this face is supposed to symbolize and a possible age of it?

    What does it seem to be made of? Is it a heavier metal?

    The design is a popular Art Nouveau (1890–1910) motif. Both ideas, watch fob or door knocker are possible.
