Found this at a 1775 battle site. Any guesses?
The rope pattern is throwing me off.

Looks like some sort of decorative lid. Maybe from a box of mints or powder compact.

I dug one of those a while back. It wasn't smashed but it looked like it was top to some kind of container. I dug mine at a house site that date from colonial times to the mid 1900's
