I purchased this recently at an estate auction. It is a charm or pendant with a 3D Lady Liberty breaking through a coin. I can find nothing like it and would like some help. It says LIBERTY on the head of Lady Liberty. E. Pluribus Unum and 1880 on the coin. On the back (3rd picture) it says Pat. 1904 where the lady goes through the coin and is stamped PEWTER over the words "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA" and the initial MO.P over the words "ONE DOLLAR". What is it? Any information on this piece would be greatly appreciated.
