I Googled 204R Pittsburgh and found that the 204th artillery regiment mustered out of Pittsburgh. On rare occasion (maybe 2 or 3 items a year) I find CW attributed items in my area. This is sort of wishful thinking, but could this tag be associated with this CW Regiment? The center of the star looks like it had something soldered to it at one point, different type of brass.

I don't see a Connection between the Upside Down Pentagram & the Military,
It's a Pretty High Number for Much Else though.

However My guess Something Oval was definitely Soldered in there.
Perhaps a Business Name,.
I'd definitely Doubt the Tool Tag idea Because of the sign, even if Baphomet is not the intention
of the Symbol in this case.. And because of the R

A Person may have 204 Tools Hanging in a Shop.

But 204 A's, 204 B's Etc to the point through the alphabet of needing a 204 R Tool ?

I Think Cow, Dog or other animal Tag would be out Also.
again the Star & the R are Probably important.

of course the star could be from the manufacturer :dontknow:

Pickers Tag/Token just came to Mind.
What Grows on a Farm that Starts with R That someone may have Picked 204 of
in a day ? besides Rats & Rabbits LOL

204 Rows ?

I'm pretty Sure All Withes would want the Star Pointing Up.
Unless they , themselves read false information.


pointing down is used by Satanists.
an all together different religion.

but I WOULD think the number suggests it was used for non religious purpose.

Very large 2nd Floor Hotel Room Key ?
Room 204 Section R ?

I read that the pentagram symbol was not adopted by the dark side until the 1900’s, good chance this is from the 1800’s like some other finds at this site.

The original goat pentagram first appeared in the book La Clef de la Magie Noire by French occultist Stanislas de Guaita, in 1897. This symbol would later become synonymous with Baphomet, and is commonly referred to as the Sabbatic Goat. Samael is a figure in Talmudic lore, and Lilith is a female demon in Jewish mythology. The Hebrew letters at the five points of the pentagram spell out Leviathan, a mythic creature in Jewish lore. This symbol was later adapted by the Church of Satan in 1969 and officially named the Sigil of Baphomet.

yours does appear to predate 1969 & Possibly even 1897.

I suppose it Could be Jewish
