Dug this piece in a field where i have found
Several General Service buttons from the
Civil War, the hook reminds me of the Bayonet
Part with the same looking hook, seems to be brass, 20161105_182941.jpg20161105_182947.jpg20161105_182956.jpg20161105_183016.jpg Anyone can
Help out ID the piece is welcome.
 

Civil war bayonets were of the socket type and were carried in a leather frog, but your piece is still some sort of hangar that affixed to a belt.. could be for a sword with a 2- ring scabbard.

Reminds me of the brass piece on the end of the leather straps that barbers used to keep their straight razor sharp, but that's just a big old wild guess.
