Oval casted item marked France???

[mangum]

Hello all. I found this at an 1840 home here in NC. I have no clue what it is. My buddy found an antique bicycle plug at this site that's oval but not the same as this. It's marked France. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

I wonder if it could be a broken cuff link?

My guess would be the base for an antique toy figure -- a soldier or something like that. I found this which shows the idea -- though not exact:

2 Antique Lead Hollow Cast British Royal Navy or U s Navy Britains 54mm | eBay

That looks pretty good to me. Thanks for the help!
