Ok, I'm stumped...It's brass, and it's a 
?(already solved)!
This piece was a surface find in a lot where an early 1900's house was just taken down. It's brass, and it's got a hinged lid, but the lid doesn't cover the whole thing, leaving an open area on the "top" I'm calling that the top because there's a ring there like it would have hung from something. There's a round "stain" of corrosion on the inside which had me thinking there had been a coin inside, but I really don't know.
Any ideas?
