Its defiantly a brown bear claw though, I am a hunter and saw them in person, Either the dude shot it on a hunting trip and saved the claws,or he shot it down the street lol after all it was the1840s. That claw came from the pit I dug the flask in. Rick _____________________________ My Web Page.Lots of pix. Dig story's published in Antique Bottle & Glass Collector.

RE: Found this today - 12/14/2007 10:12:34 PM    cobaltbot Posts: 1693 Joined: 4/7/2006 From: Delta, PA Status: offline Let me see if I can clear this up.  First off, welcome Periwinkle, Anna's friend and RedGinger - great to have ya on the forum!   The claw is what Rick posted starting with post #17 of this thread, the other thing that I posted is believed to be a pig tusk.  The counter is actually a  green marble plant stand that I bought at a local auction because I believed it to be a piece of local green marble (actually serpentine) that came from a quarry about two miles south of me.  The necklace is my bling.  The canoe at top was a neckerchief slide I carved but worried I'd loose so I added it to the oddly split walnut I might have found  in Cunningham Fall's State Park in a creek bed thirty years ago, the net weight I found in the Susquehanna about 15 year's ago, the bird point I found on the shore of the chesapeake bay about five years ago, and the medicine bag my mom got me in Germany.  Not much room for the pig tusk but I was thinking about it!
