This interesting item washed up the other day. It's just under 7" long and very heavy for its size. Also, a magnet will not attract to it.

Why don't you do some home electrolysis on it and see what it is?

Looks like a brass peg used on the railing of a sailing ship to tie lines to.

Sorry, I can’t think of the name it is called

Belaying pin is probably what you are thinking of. I looked at many photos of them on the Internet just now. There are many styles, so this mystery item could be one.

It is really crusty whatever it is.
