I find nothing a lot of days. I'd like to know why that is also

What am I missing. Ohhhhh a picture

Thar it is. IDK what that is ?? Like the Beagle. My Dad got me a Beagle puppy on my B-Day when I was maybe 8 years old. Good Ol' boy he was. I named him Butch, but sometimes he'd leave for 2 to 3 nights and come home all dirty with stinking slim all over his backside and face. I think he'd just go to explore the muddy rivers and roll in dead carp the river banks.

We all should get reprint early Sears catalogs. Would solve a lot of whatzits? I'm going to look for one.

Rodger (my beagle)also loves rolling in stinky stuff but he doesn't wander anymore he's a little lame from a car accident and doesn't get around like he did

How bout some size reference ?

Is there perhaps the remnants of a wire that it was crimped to it, opposite the round parts? It looks like maybe part of an electrical connector.

Indeed there is ,it's more wick like than wire

Cloth was an early wire insulator.
What ever you found , looks like a speedy battery terminal clip/terminal.

Looks to me like a "grounding lug" used in early electrical distribution
systems.
