Gold Gilt Matchsafe

[Gypsy Heart]

Found this matchsafe while hunting along the sandy hill of a river earlier this month. It looks to be gold gilt but I cannot find any makers mark on it. This is the way it came out of the ground... I havent even wiped it off. Where the gilt is gone it seems to be copper underneath. Any ideas on maker?
