Any ideas?

I have searched and searched but have not been able to come up with what this could have been. Any ideas would be welcomed.

Found on an 1860s-1870s site. I found this badge/medallion type piece along with two hooks from a civil war knapsack and three different period eagle buttons. Very few targets at this site but what was found was old and interesting. A newer print press piece and silver quarter were found at this site but seem unrelated to the majority of this stuff.

The badge/medallion appears to depict a woman in a dress holding a harp.

Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for looking!

Haven't a clue.
Though very interesting.

My guess is a religious medallion. A woman (Mary?) holding baby. In the lower right corner it looks like three men kneeling (three wise men?)

Some nice old there.
