Found this at an 1830s Plantation Site in an area where there were slave cabins. It appears to be brass. I know VR stands for Victoria Regina meaning it was made after 1819 when Victoria became queen.

It is exactly 1 3/4 inches high. No markings at all on the back. About the thickness of a large cent with blunt edge all the way around.

It does not appear to be broken off of anything. Which has me wondering what it was used for.

Here is the back. Doesnt appear to have been attached to anything.

Here is a closeup of the only spot on the back where something might have been attached but I dont think so. The small rough spot is not even in the center.
 

We going to the back of the rack on this one. I love history and T-net too!
