Found in park on hillside. It's brass and tapered.The top is 1 3/8 and bottom 1 1/4 and 1/4 in. thick. No markings and no threads so not for plumbing.
It has a grove like an ash tray has to hold cigarettes but not that deep.I don't see any marks that would indicate that this was hacksawed and appears to be cast in one piece.

Oh WELL DONE! I knew it was a ferrule, but it isn't tall enough for most tools. :notworthy:

UW. I remembered it from before. It was a tough ID in the beginning. Several members have found them. http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,283145.0.html

Amen Bcy!For years I wondered what those were,and was elated when Buckleboy brought it up last year or so,and they were I.D.ed,since then I have I.D.ed countless ones in museums and such.Thanks T-Net!!!
