Did a follow up hunt on the old house being torn down last evening and managed to make a few finds despite the 90 + heat and the debris. The darker object is a Larkin Co (Buffalo N Y) "Corn salve" container which still retains the lettering, I dare not clean it anymore or it will be gone. Two brass buttons (civilian) an aluminum Token (John 3:16) a blue marble. The last item is a lead seal (?) of some sort with the number 379.

This is my mystery item, I'm wondering if any out there know what this went on or to and if in fact it is a lead "seal".

Thanks
