    I came across this today. A small metal, non-magnetic, little case. Onlay about 2 inches tall. I am wondering if anyone knows what it is or if anyone can help me translate the inscription on the inside of the lid. It looks Japanese to me? Not quite sure. Interesting little object. Thanks for looking.
