Hey everyone,
I just dug this today and have never seen anything quite like it. It appears to be a little cast pewter teacup. It's been pretty well mangled in the ground but it has a beautiful design on the front. I do believe it is quite old however could it just be a monopoly piece? My question is: how old is this and what might it have been used for? Thanks for looking!

Antique miniature doll house related?

More likely from a child's playhouse... OR from a charm bracelet. IMO

I would think most likely charm.

Could also be a candle snuffer. I would look close to the inside. Just a thought.

I believe it is an 1800s antique pewter toy tea cup from a set similar to the one I posted below.
