Neck chain for Indiana Jones's sun-shaped medallion (worn by Marion)

A slim neck chain worn by Marion that secures Indiana Jones's sun-shaped medallion during the standoff in "The Raven." Marion slips the medallion free and leaves the chain aside on the bar amid the Nazi raid; the chain remains associated with her while the exposed medallion is grabbed by Belzig and scorched by supernatural heat.

S1E1 · RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK

Choice at The Raven — Belzig's Interrogation and the Medallion's Burn

The sun-shaped medallion (represented here by the neck chain object) is slipped from Marion’s chain and left exposed on the bar; it becomes the focal MacGuffin. Belzig ultimately grabs it and is supernaturally seared, which turns the medallion from passive evidence into an active, dangerous force that drives the attackers into retreat.

Before: Resting on the bar beside glasses and bottles after Marion slides it off the chain; partially obscured by bottles until the Second Nazi exposes it by drinking.

After: It is torn free from Belzig when it sears him, rolls across the floor and ends up on the barroom floor as flames and breaking glass scatter the room.

The sun-shaped medallion is placed on the bar by Marion as a focal object; Belzig later snatches it during the firefight and is painfully burned, demonstrating its supernatural heat and immediately raising the stakes.

Before: Laid on the bar partially obscured by bottles and glasses.

After: Picked up by Belzig, became red-hot and seared him, then was flung/rolled free and ended up on the floor as Belzig fled.
