    I bought a bag of stuff at a goodwill and there were 2 of these in the bag. They seem to be made out of a very nice silver I polished this one up. It is small only about 2" tall There is a plane head screw in the top that is also silver. As anybody ever seen anything like this before, what is it and what is it used for?

      If it isn't stamped then it is likely to be silver plated versus real silver. I haven't seen too many silver screws in my time...it's too soft for that but I am not an expert by any stretch.

      Hi Carmeniscat,
      Thank you for replying. Do you know what this is, or what it is used for?
