This is very inriguing

So from the feedback I have received I do feel this is most likely a trade item brought over by the Europeans.. Was it traded as seen, or was there a stem that disintegrated a long time ago? Coincidentally I also dug my oldest coin from the site two days prior ~ a William the 3rd 1694 - 1702. I am still open to other ideas, there just haven't been any that fit so far... the closest guess was a candle snuffer, which I also was thinking when I dug it, but definitely not a candle snuffer. I need to follow and reach out to some museums etc....

To my eye the coin is a William III, I have found quite a few. There is also a good chance, however, that it is a George III evasion halfpenny. If it is smaller in diameter than a standard half penny then it is an evasion issue. I would say that here in Atlantic Canada 60% or more of the George III halfpennies I have found, which would be a hundred or more, are counterfeits.

The other item looks to me like a measure of some sort, or is the handle open to the bowl?

Looks like a pipe to me. Make your own stem like the the pic of the Indian. A minimalist style but all you need really. As thin as it looks it’s still in great condition.
