Nipple guard???

[RKinOI]

No, Not off of a musket, But the other kind. Found this strange object along with an old pin, toy soldier, car and a geode. Hey what would that be doing in N.C.

Don't know about the nipple thing but love the old pin.

Base of a small lamp...if the hole goes all the way through? Monty

 

[Jeffro]

looks like the base of one of those things you stick receipts on. May have had a brass rod through it at one time?

 

[wirelessworldinc]

Is it hollow inside and does it have any sodering marks? Mary ann PS: it does not look like a bell, kinda shaped like it might be but I bet it was used for something else.
