Wow thanks so much! I have found a bunch of these and always wondered what the heck they were!

And apparently everyone had an organ back in the day. I just dug one about an hour ago from someone's backyard.

I have to give credit for the quick ID to History in the Dirt's Roger Dettelberger, He and his page ID it for me.
