013.webp Out in a field today and found this. Just cleaned it up. Know I have found plenty of drift/ float copper but this looks like a face or head figure or a bead. One hole goes straight though second looks like the start of another hole? Puzzeling Possible man made? 014.webp Kinda like a skull or something? Or just a piece of natural copper that just looks like a head?

I would post a few more photos but some who tonight my computer seems to be acting up. Back side is natural looking then the other side looks worked, almost sculpded. I will post back with photos later.
 

Its looks like copper but not NA related.
 

The hole going through the copper makes me think that there is a chance it may be North American Indian, but nature can do some crazy things. Anyways, if not indian, it's still a nice piece of drift copper.
 

Where is this hole you speak of? Currently, my opinion is that it is a natural and unworked nugget, but if the hole shows evidence of drilling I'd start singing a different tune.
