Is that what the fifth picture is? A barrel tap? I found one and I was not sure.

Not the full tap, just the on/off switch (kinda thing)

Yes, it's a part of a barrel tap. I believe it's ca 17th century. Please take a look at the whole thing. Here is the one from the auction:

I feel bad about hi-jacking Hispan's post so I'm moving this discussion to a new post. Would love to hear your feedback about the item I found that may be a tap handle.
