My grandfather found this on the side of the road when he was younger. Any help identifying the make, year and value would be awesome. Actually any info at all about it would be great!

I'm fairly certain that this is not a factory Pontiac hubcap. I don't know the cars that well, but it's obvious that on this hubcap the Indian is facing the wrong direction. On the factory hubcaps the Indian faced left (see: 1948 Pontiac Wheel Cover Hubcap Hub Cap 48 | eBay ). This is a right-wing Indian.

This is probably an aftermarket knock-off, many of which used to be sold through catalog outles like J.C. Whitney.
