Congrats! I once found a piece that was covered in crud I thought it was a just junk till I rubbed some of the crud off, turned out to be a brass sail boat 1 1/2" X 1" nice little piece, glad I didn't throw it out and checked it first!

Your collar looks like some bearing cover (to hold bearing in position) or part to an axle.
