Found this today

[Trescher]

I can't tell what it is.
It is about 1/4" in length, width and height.
The rounded top (or bottom) has a triangle with a V in the middle or it. (the picture doesn't show that very well.)
I don't think that it is a bullet casing or a button.
Could it be decoration from a purse or jacket?

Thanks.

Looks to me to possibly a .22 caliber crimped blank. Check out this link.

Dang it, this link doesn't seem to work now that it's posted. Anyhow, you can go to www.Gifts.com and do a search for 22 caliber blanks. That what you found I'm sure.

from what I can tell it looks like a round from a starter pistol, just enough powder in it to make a bang.

I kinda thought that, but it wasn't long enough to hold a bullet, so now I know why.
Thanks!

In the construction world of tools, there is what is called a Hilti or Ramset. It's a pistol type device that uses .22 cal. size "charges" to shoot special nails into cement or steel. It could even be one of those.
