I found this brass item in a very old yard where I've found coins dating back as far as 1901. It's marked "Ford" in script near the bottom, like the old Ford tools are marked. It's 2 and 3/16" inches high and 1.5" across at the bottom. I was going to put it in my scrap bin because I didn't notice any markings on it but decided to run it through the tumbler with the modern change I found last month. I was surprised to notice the Ford writing on it when it was finished tumbling. I know it's from the very early Ford Motor Company but I don't know if it's a car part or a tool of some kind. I apologize for the blurry photo but my old camera is cranky sometimes.
