Need help identifying

[JamesCeee]

Dug this piece of brass while out earlier. Stamped 51 on one side. Anyone know what it may be?

Reminds me of a chisel, but doesn't quite look right. Are any of the ends broken?

Reminds me of part of a patchbox door. Here is one from a model 1841 Mississippi rifle. You might get better responses if you posted this in the help to id section.
