Whoa, awesome Lincoln token
 

Thanks bear! The spork is a mystery to me.. It tests positive for silver but has no markings at all?? Looks hand made to. It was a great day for hunting here in New England!
 

Is the spork a native American design? I love it no matter what. Great find.
 

Not sure on the design, but it looks like it might be a thunderbird on the handle? It's definitely unique!
 

Kingrich , Your spoon / fork - is of Navajo manufacture as evidenced by the stamping patterns and the Thunder bird motif .
This piece was almost certainly made in the Southwestern U.S. - Arizona , New Mexico . I think it dates to the 1950's
The size has me stumped ,it clearly isn't large enough to be part of a salad set , but why so small as a spork ? and it
is not a baby spoon with the cut outs at the front - so what is it ? Great Find !
