Bell Trading Company Solid Copper Kachina Necklace $1~Sold $42

I picked up this super cool vintage solid copper "Kachina" Native American looking necklace at a yard sale for $1. The hallmark on the back said copper and by Bell. My first thought was copper is going for a great deal these days also anything signed is usually worth something. These are listed on light from $60-$99. A little history: The Bell Trading Company was founded in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 1935 by Jack Michelson and his wife Mildred Bell. They sold Native American Indian jewelry at various tourist locations in the southwestern United States until the late 1980s.
