I have no idea what in the world this could be:?:
Found it yesterday with some Mercs and wheaties, so it could be from the 40's?
The curved edges seem to be accentuated by the dragons' bodies, so I believe it is complete.

Whaddya think?

I was thinking napkin ring too, especially since you found your 1904 ring earlier this week...
But would they make them out of lead?
 
I'm going with Pewter

Lead used to be the main hardener in pewter before it was replaced by antimony

Pewter historically was an alloy of *tin and lead (up to 50% Pb)
