spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 10/18/2017 02:35 am I'm not sure what your actual question is but, if it's magnetic, it's not silver and looks to be inspired by Japanese coinage because of the chrysanthemum. A token or medal? Or, maybe, fashion garb. I doubt it has any value but, I have limited knowledge in this area. And... to CCF!

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 10/18/2017 04:35 am to CCF. Could it be a counter weight? John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34419 Posts	Posted 10/18/2017 06:41 am @SJE, first welcome to CCF. Second, that is an interesting piece you have there. It does appear to be a weight of some type--maybe a clock weight?

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 10/18/2017 09:09 am I would agree with the probability of this having a Japanese origin, and as some type of weight. Report this Post to the Staff
Dennman Valued Member Canada 496 Posts	Posted 10/18/2017 2:09 pm Spence has it.It's a pendulum weight for an Ingraham mantle clock. The "chrysanthemum" looks more like a clock and the big I is for Ingraham. Report this Post to the Staff
spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 10/18/2017 3:43 pm I was way off! Dennman nailed it: an Ingraham mantle clock pendulum bob. You can buy them on Amazon.
