This item looks like it might be some kind of thin horn or very thick leather. It has wood plugs at either end; very small nail heads are visible around the horn holding the wood in place. There are 2 holes on the concave side of the horn; one is about 5/8" across, and the other is about 1/16". There is a small nail on each wood end with a remmant of leather? still under it. The item is hand carved. Still readable is A. H. 177. There are 4 circles with curved lines like pieces cut for pie. There are other letters, but the deterioration of the item makes them unreadable. There are other "decorative" carvings including an S scroll on each side of the larger hole.
Does anyone hava an idea what this might be?
Thanks for the help. K

American Colonial full size bed with original casters and no damage. It has been very well taken care of. Therea are a few superficial scratches from being moved. Built in 1894 and sold by a mercantile in Wisconsin; according to a tag on one of the slats holding the bed together. My sister purchased the bed along with other items in a lot for $100.00 from a friend who had a yard sale. I've been sleeping on this bed for about 5 years now and just wondered how much it might be worth.

My son got this at a woman's house that was moving and gave him some things. it has a crest on the bottom. It looks like real silver on it also
