Another fire pit find

[Tigerdude]

Check this out. I found this powder flask flatten in the fire pit I have been excavating. As you can see from the before picture, it was flatten with two distinctive halves . It looks like copper I have just used a toothpick to clean. Any advice on further cleaning. As to age, were flasks used during civil war. This looks to pre date the war

Killer! Can you feel the connection between the person who used this and yourself?
