That was also my first thought , but the opening is too small for that....
Could it be a part of a key ?

 

[stefen]

Its a ruler

Possibly a 1970's cabinet makers model...

What´s a WAG ?

PS.:
It is easy to note it was hand made .
Please don´t you think it could be celtic or roman.

rammjäger its possible its a key for an old antique trunk from the end looks like it could push on pins to open it . or maybe a key of some sort for a piano key board or an old desk, dunno thats my thoughts...great find any how...

A WAG is a "Wild A$$ Guess"

You state that you are in the U.S. now, but didn't say whether it was found in the US or Europe.

As to Roman or Celtic...If found in stateside, probably not.

And as to being handmade, there is a possibility that it was machine stamped, as well. Someone needs to make a positive identification, which then will make it possible to determine if it is handmade or a production factory item.

End of an old key.

I don't have a clue, but it is interesting!

 

[coinshooter1]

it looks like an old skelaton key that was broken off. Maybe the other half is in the chest that is filled with all of the gold!! LOL still it is a great find. WTG

Old thingy

 

[jimb]

You can tell by the shape it is a key.

 

[MonkeyBoy]

broken end of a child's spur??

 

[TimC (North Alabama)]

Nice find. Can't wait to know what it is.

 

[CRUSADER]

Its not Roman, Celtic, Saxon. Most likely post-medieval. Maybe a spur attachment. Also it doesn't look brass or bronze.

Hi Paul,
a Key for an old antique trunk , is what my wife also says
This city was founded 1775 .It could be from that time . Incredibly I found it only
in 5 cm depth .
I mean,you never know these things are going to be found !

Looks like part of an older buckle, 1200-1400s, the broken end would have a fork looking piece that was fitted into the leather strap. HH, Mike
