Brass End Cap?

[Clo]

I found this item near an old plantation home that is also a cultivated field., so I don’t know if it’s a homesite item or farm related. To me it looks like something that would have gone on the end of a wooden pole, as it appears to have a nail through it (like you would see on a rake or something). My first guess was for a walking cane, but it’s a little on the heavy side. Any opinions appreciated.

Probably a buggy shaft tip. on the shafts that run up along side the horse.

Thanks guys. That had crossed my mind, but I was afraid it wasn’t that old. Thanks for the help.
