small container
Back in the early days of my coin hunting, I found a small, round, container, maybe the diameter of a silver dollar. It seems to be made of aluminum, and has embossed on the top part "3 Merry Widows." Because the metal is so lite, I jabbed a couple of holes in it with and ice pick.
I got an idea what it is, but I would rather someone told me, rather than guess and sound stupid....Any ideas?

I know exactly what it is, found one myself.
It's a 1900's condom holder. The company is still in business believe it or not.

You can't take it with you but it sure is fun to find.

Victorian Dildo????
I appreciate the answers. Condom holder?....that's what I thought. But Jake; Victorian Dildo just doesn't seem right.

Hey timedog,
Made any money off that Paypal pyramid scheme yet (that you have listed at the bottom of your site).
Aren't you afraid they will sell your email to every spammer in the world? 8)
