Went to a farm field to arrowhead hunt and theres a ditch full of broken glass (old trash pit) but still manage to find lots of point tips in it. Anyway when I looked down and seen this it made my hunt a little cooler. People lived in the old house for a long time but not sure just how long. It looks like brass thats all I can say about it other than the cool Cat (Lion?), any ideas?

I checked, nothing visible if there ever was any. It may have been a cheapie but imagine its 30 plus years old to 1940's era.

I had my doubts it was a locket but still an interesting find. If your dating is right and I think it is 40's or maybe the 50's something tells me it was a prize from a carnival or fair.

I believe that's a fob from a dresser.

I could be wrong, but my mother had a dresser that had brass fobs hanging to pull the drawers open, and that's the spitting image of it.

I would agree, 1940's, maybe a bit older.
