Under Research for Köln Cathedral I found this Photo.. Showing how RAF and US Airforce spared this building.
Started construction at 1248 - only to end building in 1880. In 1868 the tower was only ½ done..

First of all that indian head might just be a Rare one !!!, secondly that claw i believe to be off a brooch which would have had feathers sticking out the top and may be silver !, and lastly, that little bangle is either silver or gold, looks like a baby bracelet !. Good luck with the penny, i'll try and find out a bit more about it. . . Alan ..

The letters appear to read COLHE DOA which is Portugese and also used in South American countries ,can't find a direct translation but it means something like -what you sow -you reap
which is a religious saying hence the church.I may be totally on wrong track but I enjoy doing the research into items I find it very interesting.Maybe there is someone on forum that speaks Portugese [or maybe Spanish is similar ] that can translate .

Hi John I had looked at site originally then looked at letters the N was not clear
and neither was the M so I tried H and A and which also gave me a result ,Wonder if
further cleaning may make the letters more clear,my eyes are not what they used to be .
Think you are probably right you have much more experience than me on finding correct ID
the finds have certainly created a lot of interest .

What a strange trick nature has played on the lettering; I heard the same said of Dresden.
