It looks like a spring button off of a shaft (like on a metal detector). Maybe the spoon on the end held a spring?

It could be that but I am not sure what that is .A guess would be a part to a telegraph or phone.There was a lot of junk metal in the area I found the brass Piece .Maybe the next time will reveal what the part came from Thanks
