Help identifing decoritive brass piece

[backintheday]

Ok I'm new to this forum and really excited about it. I have been relic hunting for a few years. I recently moved to the low country of SC and have a few items I'm not quite sure about. Any help would be great. Thanks and good hunting!

It's a brass piece of a kings head with crown. I tried to find a resemblance for the person or crown and could not.
It was found in a civil war camp site, however it could be older or more modern I just don't know.

Looks like a pipe tamper. I dont know who it is. King Charles?

That would be my guess too.

Excellent find! He's got the long hair and mustache like Charles the second. Hard to really make out fine details on the crown. It's definatly a pipe/tabacco tamper. I've seen one with the same bottom. Did Good
