Found this at the local school where they used to have the county fair, but just up until the mid 1920s or so. After that they used the racetrack (which existed as a horse track before it's fair history, but used as a car race track. Area was also used as a CCC camp about the time of the 1934 Chicago fair.
Not really sure what this would have been a part of, could have been most anything. It is copper and has 3 holes in it, one of which still has the rivet in it. Top says 1934 Chicago World fair and bottom says "Hall of Science"

Love it! Looked around and couldn't find on like it but +1 on side to pocket knife. Thousands of souveys were made for worlds fairs. I recently found an unidentified medal from 1901 W F buffalo, Ny. Really cool find, you should try to find the other half.
