Can anybody tell me what this is?
The writing on the outside says:" NO SHIPMENT TOO SMALL FOR OUR ATTENTION NOR TOO LARGE FOR OUR CAPACITY ".

So far I find that phrase is from the Cassidy Southwestern Commission Co., which dealt with
livestock.

 

[Chad1972]

Yeah, that's about all I found too. I figure this must be some kind of advertising thing for them. Or part of it

It means you hit the lottery....I wish

I don't know if this is any help or not, but I did find this.
I am not certain but I think it may have something to do with the early days of the Bank of America.

Maybe the plug to a piggy bank that was given to customers as branding/advertising?

I have seen advertising mirrors from perhaps late 1800s. The back was the ad. Could a mirror glass be held in with that raised ring?

 

[Chad1972]

Yes, it looks like something was glued inside the ring

 

[A2coins]

I like it

 

[etex]

Watch Fob, the slot at the top is broke off

 

[Icewing]

It's just a game of wild speculation at this point so maybe it had a token or coin in the ring.

I agree with Benz and Etex in that it is a watch fob (attachment broken off) advertising Cassidy Southwestern Commission Co. It was probably a 'give-away' fob.


Neat find
