Odd Little Handmade Lead Pendant Found In A Confederate Civil War Camp


Recommended Posts

I found this lead pendant today at the edge of a civil war camp that I have been hunting for years. It had me stumped for a while because the letters and image are reversed. I used my phone to reverse the image to make it legible and I noticed it said "Warranted Superior" I know Warranted Superior has been making hand saws since the 1840's or even earlier. I wonder if some soldier got bored at camp melted some lead and poured it into The medallion of a saw they had laying around and then decided to make a pendant out of it?

What a nice find you have! To think it was possibly made by a Civil War soldier really makes it unique. I can just picture him wearing that around his neck and showing all the other guys that he has a medal stating that he is WARRANTED SUPERIOR!
