Union scabbard tip?

I found this yesterday at a Union campsite; there was also a house nearby dating to the 1700s. Does this look like it could be from a Union army scabbard? Thanks

I don't think it is from a scabbard. The taper is too dramatic and scabbard brass doesn't typically have holes like that.

Maybe the throat from a powder horn (not flask)? Maybe part of a candlestick telephone?
