I have not been able to find anyting about this item. I found it a few weeks ago in the same area that I dug a 1798 Draped Bust LC and a bunch of different sized musketballs. At first I though I had a holed LC then noticed it was fake, just a replica. Any thoughts? Possible age? Thanks to all who help id my finds so quickly. I am still very new to this hobby and know almost nothing about the stuff I find.

Cuz, seems to me like a pendant that was made as an ode to a LC. Looks from the pics like the bust is abnormally raised as if to emphasize the decorative nature of it. My guess is mid-1800s. Very unique find.
