Dose anybody recognize this .Is it a family crest. Can't figure out what it is.

No wonder I couldn't figure it out I was looking at it like it was a spoon or fork how dumb do I feel thank you for the help

Any chance its a stamp/brand from these folks? S, Isaac and Campbell, provided goods to the Confederacy.

 

[R. Porter]

My gut feeling is that it's post Civil War.

My guess is it's a broken watch fob. YMMV

Looks like a lock slide cover to me. Just a guess.

I'm now thinking my guess is wrong and you got it right.

A finial?

Just guessing but I think it's a very old postwar C&O System (Chesapeake & Ohio RR System C&O S) watch fob.

Several good guesses, and I can't say definitively what it is. But my first reaction was some sort of faub.

My first thought was a lock slide cover like Oddball so I googled, its Sargent & Co., looks period.

Well, that settles it for me. My first reaction was wrong. I think we've got a winner here.

That makes sense. Glad VaFredneck had that to share. I'd never seen one like that before.
