Lead eagle

I found this lead eagle at a cellar hole. Any ideas? Flag topper? Cane Handle?

How big is it?

It is about Two inches long.

Thanks Del! I bet that is exactly what it is!

How the heck did you know that, Dan!??

Great find. Equally great identification.

I agree Drew. It's just not normal.

I wonder if Dan is a hoarder and has a few barns of everything old made out of metal and catalogs everything. Hmmmm. Great job Dan. Simply amazing.

Dan I had warned you about storing all your shoe buckles in one place.

Ever hear of the Collyer brothers?

Great ID Del! That is a very cool relic.
