I know that is a hole punch. It has a patent date for oct. 9, 1800. What was it used for and is a rare thing?

Looks like an old press to put grommets or cold rivets in material.
Leather punches usually came with an assortment of dies, are those removable?
I am not sure. I haven't tried to take any out. It is still operational. It works fine.
Google vintage hole punch press you'see ebay has them anywhere from 12 to 50 dollars
fhrjr2 has it right, I have one of these that is used to set grommets, usually used with canvas tent material and brass grommets.
