Dfxcobb, That looks actually like a canteen stopper indeed. Great find and save. So glad you didn't throw it away.

Just wanted to hear your opinoins on this thing i found several months ago. I put it to the side because it was found along with some CW relics and a few modern items. I was looking at some CW relics online and ran across a canteen stopper and to me thats what it kinda looks like..what ya think

Nice .
I need to check my 'piles' for any Un-Id'd relics.

I'm guessing the water? saved the cork ? .
Have a great week .

I meant to add, that to me, the round loop at the pieces end ID's this as a canteen stopper. I used to do Living History some years back and the equipment and accoutrements we used were of course were reproduction pieces but we're made as they were during the war. I have been able to ID several pieces I've found through the years by having used the reproduction pieces while doing Living History. Kinda funny.
