It's a piece broken off something made between 1837 and 1901.

"V.R." refers to Victoria Regina. Queen Victoria of England.

I found one with the same V R (Victoria Regina) mark on it. I didn't know what it was when I found it. It was ID'ed here quickly. i love the knowledge on this site. Here's a couple pics of the one I found.
