🥇 BANNER Indian chief badge

[eu4ia]

Found this at a small tear out at an elementary school. It was made for a 1915-1917 Indian chief bicycle. Came up as a 12-46 on the etrac. Not silver but still a pretty cool find.

I'm sure folks researching have already seen it, but here's a clear shot of a cleaned up one and its placement on the bike.

That is an outstanding find. Relic bike badges like the shape that one is in are far and few between. I also am casting a banner vote.

This just proves that Treasure comes in many forms.

Congrats on the banner buddy! I'm kinda jealous, mine didn't get the prestigious banner nomination.

U4 - Congrats on it finally getting up there on the banner. Nice job on the cleaning and follow-up when many had forgotten about it.

First person or people I thought of when I saw this, Mike Wolf with Antique Archeology on the TV show. He loves bicycles and I bet he would love to purchase it.
