1850's Site Yields Dog of a Find

[winslow]

In among the 30 pounds of spikes, giant bolts, square nails and great sounding shell casings I found what I thought was a medallion or buckle with an eagle on it. I did find a beat up button with an eagle. Pretty common find at old gold rush areas.

My "eagle wings" transformed into dog ears during clean up. Fooled again!! Some sort of old pin or brooch. Looks like a dachshund pup according to the expert (my wife).
