cColumbia River Beads and copper medallion

I purchased a 7' strand of Columbia River Beads from Tony @ Bc Artifacts The smaller necklaces are personal finds as are the "medallions" that almost look like coins.

Nice looking pieces Trask. Any chance that those medallions are actually old buttons that were drilled and then used as Pendants?

Steve I have no idea what they are..Buttons is a heck of an interesting idea..They actually look like buttons..Just seems "soft" as they are fairly thin and copper.

Man those are nice. I have been seeing a lot of Columbia River artifacts on the market lately. Wish I hadn't spent all of my free time up the mountains when I lived there now.
