A small buckle, a key and a mystery object

[RelicPrime113]

Hey guys,

long time no see. Ive been busy for a while but it hasnt stop me from detecting. I havnt found anything good lately. Just a buch of old nails, pieces of metal shards and more nails. But today I happen to find some interesting objects. I have found a buckle of some kind. Not sure how old it is but it looks prety old. I've also found a key from Miami Florida. whats that doing here in New England? lol. Anyway, heres the real mystery object. I have no clue what it is and im afraid to touch it. It didnt show up on the detector but i found it with the buckle. At first I thought it was a bullet but its too light and dark. Any idea what it could be? As always, Enjoy!

It sorta looks like a tip to a wood burning tool, but not knowing what it's made of and having no real information to go on, that is purely speculation.

I concur with Creskol, but I'm guessing.
