Glad to be back

Boy it sure is good to be back out and swinging again. I need some help trying to ID this. My brother and I have been working a old farmhouse. I know that the land has been in use since the 1800's . I think that there were troops here during the civil war. Well thank you for looking and any help with this will help.

Maybe a wall hanger for a couple of flags? The flag poles would go in the wings.

I think it is a lid to something. Look at the bottom, looks like a hinge and the upper part is the latch.

The top part doesn't look like it moves. You would have to bend it to release a latch. I was thinking something would hang from the bottom.

Looks like some sort of suspender type clip... Top latches/hooks on some sort of "nail head" and bottom is affixed to a strap or something.

I've got no guess but it's a cool looking find! :yes:

Lid to something, bottom part of it looks like half a hinge with the pin missing.

X2. Neat piece!

Yes, some sort of patriotic locket/tin cover - very cool item!

Definitely a "hinge" on the bottom and a clasp on the top.
That is very unique, congratulations!
