searching for identity of artist

[rain]

I stumbled upon this amazing site and hope someone may know the identity of the artist who created this piece. It has been in my father's possession for over 30 years even after the eagle feather fell out. I am also curious about anything else that can be told about the piece as far as if there is any special meaning behind it. My father treasured it so much.

It is my understanding that to post a pic I must use an outside program. I used tiny picture to upload. The drawing must be unique to the artist and his name is/was benny or denny and the date was 75'

The first image is the front and the second the back with the markings.

can anyone tell me the type of rock/stone that is in the pendant? Anyone recognize the artsit's name of 'denny' that was making jewelry at least around 1975 in the Middle TN area or perhaps the makers mark of an indian wearing feathers and holding 2 staffs? or do you think he is holding something else? trying to find anything to use to help in my search

You can include images in the post if you resize them to 700 or so pixels wide. Lots of free software that will allow you to do so.

The name looks to me like it's Danny K, not Denny & sorry, no idea who it is/was.
