Yes size would help in the guessing also where you found it as in state or dry land. Welcome to the site.

It has all the characteristics of a cupulet but did you scratch the patina in the cup? Glad you joined and posted. There a lot more knowledgable than me. Lets see what they say. It sounds like you are in a good area for artifact hunting.
Welcome to artifacts.

Thanks TN...no, the grooves were there...that was one of the main reasons I was thinking it might be an artifact..Good to be here! Thanks for the welcome! Funny, I've already got more help here than at the museum...they have a trade and ID center and didn't really have any idea what it was...but I think they are just students...
