Does it have threads inside ?

Could it be an old valve stem cap ?

Hi ya bigrig,,,
I would have to go with the lipstick tube lid. It's amazing how so much stuff used to be made of brass, or copper, that is now made of plastic... Good luck & Happy hunting~

Jopher got it correctly first.I just pryed it open alittle and some reddish grit that looks like dried up lipstick fell out.Thanks for the help.
