Brass thing,tokens Sunday finds

[junkhunter]

Plenty of clad today,not looking for clad.A few wheat cents,earliest was 1926.And this strange brass thing.Found it in 2 pieces.Could be part of plumbing i guess but a little oddly shaped for that.Also got 1 three ringer fired mini ball.That made my day.

Brass piece looks like it might be a part from a Tuba (or other brass instrument).

Congrats on the CW lead.
My guess on that odd shaped brass piece is that it is off of an old phonograph.
Congrats,

I agree with modernminer, an antique phonograph arm
