🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Found in the 5 gallon bucket

[pepperj]

Have a 5 gallon bu ket of pouch dumps. So I went through it and have been discovering some pretty cool missed recoveries.
This one has me wondering
Sterling and engraved with a R.I.C maybe.
So if any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks.

hmm that's an interesting one. Not sure. Hope someone can ID! Cool piece!!

 

[gillious]

Wild guess but could it be some sort of vintage finger pick

 

[DCMatt]

Maybe something like this:

 

[ARC]

Maybe something like this:

I like this DC... i would go with this ... size and shape seems to fit.

Maybe the end off of a bolo tie string?

 

[pepperj]

Maybe something like this:

That seems like that could be it.

Another possibility might be a walking stick

Another possibility might be a walking stick

I'm thinking a decorative tip for western (cowboy) boots.

Chuck that, I think cane or walking stick handle cap fits better.

An early metal thimball for sewing?

Nice and odd. Im with Tamrocks reply. 👍

 

[Blak bart]

I thought cane or walking stick topper, but could be to small for that ??

 

[tamrock]

The way the open end is cut at an angle leads me to think it came off a cane rather than a straight walking stick which are kinda skinny some are.

 

[pepperj]

Thanks folks
Tamrock I'm liking that picture of the cane end sloped and that works.
Bart I would have to agree on being too small but were all canes or even a umbrella end be too small.

 

[pepperj]

Now the next question what letter order would the readership put them in. R.I.C that's if I'm reading it right

 

[Back-of-the-boat]

I think RJC because it doesn't look like the I has a foot on the right side to complete the I.

 

[Tpmetal]

Could be from a cane or parasol?

Thanks I didn't notice that even.
