adcoins1 New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 05/07/2022 7:25 pm Does anyone know where this is from? I've scoured the internet and can't find anything about it. I don't have much info except that it probably came from the Northeast USA (obviously), most likely RI or MA. Thank you Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34406 Posts	Posted 05/07/2022 8:09 pm @ad, is there any evidence on the rim of a loop having been removed? I see some similarities of design to these pendants: https://www.ebay.com/itm/274548573731 https://www.ebay.com/itm/121867336863 "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff
adcoins1 New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 05/07/2022 9:08 pm Thank you. Yes, the design seems identical to those, however it does not have any evidence of a chain being removed. The edge is "ridged" all around and has no flaws that I can see. Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16826 Posts	Posted 05/08/2022 05:52 am As for "where it came from", I can see a small sevice resembling a mintmark, at the bottom in the same wedge as the cannon wheel. Looks like a little bell shape. Other medals on ebay sharing this design don't seem to share that mark. Any chance of a closeup zoom-in on that mark?

Spence Moderator United States 34406 Posts	Posted 05/08/2022 05:58 am @sap, is that privy mark a bell or a Pilgrim's hat?

fplagge Pillar of the Community United States 659 Posts	Posted 05/08/2022 09:50 am Well, at least you now know that it is not a "coin". Report this Post to the Staff
adcoins1 New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 05/09/2022 1:04 pm That mark at the bottom is a very small pilgrim's hat shape Report this Post to the Staff
