Long shot on this one...found at CW site

Long shot on this one. ID needed.

Found this little piece in and around some earthworks at one of my civ sites. Looks like a pin or piece of a pin. Not sure. I know it's a long shot, but was hoping maybe someone knew what this might be. Thanks for looking.

Interesting piece! I wonder if its a hook that attaches to the wall.

No help here....but I'm curious!

Could it be a nipple pick to clean the nipple on a muzzleloader?

 

[Rocky77]

I appreciate the replies. It's just so random of a find, it's tough to guess what it could be.

Don’t know, but thanks for sharing.

Its the foot to a small wooden box or maybe mantle clock.

It was found in a trench at a CW site deep in the woods which was a pickett line.

Fired bullet cleaner? I was thinking tompion, but it’s not shaped like one. Unless it was smashed
