✅ SOLVED No idea what this is... but it was something specific.

Found this today in an area in New York that dates back to Rev War. No idea what it is...

Possibly copper/brass? Not really sure.

Thanks for looking!

It makes me think of a gate latch the half round open part would go over a rod and lock the gate, handle lifted and hole is attached so it would toggle up and down.

It could be a gate latch but would not be surprised if something else.

Didn't pay attention to size not gate latch now that I noticed dime next to it.

Totally silly(??) guess, but given the size...curtain rod holder
