My guess is that it is the decorative end of a curtain rod, desktop flag pole or something of that nature. If the left end has a hole, especially threaded that would support my theory.I found this the other day in my garden after a big rain came through. It's brass or appears to be. I live in New Hope area. Major battle occurred here before they got to Picketts mill. Any ideas?

I have no guess how old it might be. I suspect that if it is solid brass that would indicate it is fairly old.
Might be worth renting a metal detector!
