This listing is for the Boyd’s Battery Antique Medical Quackery Pendant. This is a fascinating example of late 19th-century "quack" medicine. Patented around 1878, this small medallion was marketed with unproven claims that it could cure ailments and purify the blood by radiating a gentle electrical current when worn as an amulet or pendant. Its unique design features a mosaic of different metal discs—typically copper, brass, and white metal—arranged in a floral pattern. This construction was intended to create a galvanic effect, tapping into the Victorian era's fascination with the perceived healing powers of electricity. Interesting Find!!!
