Farmstead permission Friday was pretty disappointing. Brought these mysteries home. Circle is about 2" , heavy for size, magnet doesn't stick. I thought maybe a wheel for an antique toy but the broken star design shows it wouldn't be very strong for that. The aluminum thing was in two pieces when dug but clearly should fit together as in pics. Also if anybody knows what the small aluminum two piece container, uh, contained? Was hoping for my first condom tin but think it says _____p cream, above that i see "ane" - thanks in advance!
Big heavy circle w/star; 2-piece aluminum thingie

I've found a couple of the star shaped things, I always thought they were spigot wheels. Not sure on the other items.

I think the tin used to say Cold Cream
Well, you nailed that! Thanks!
That makes sense.

Yes it wraps around the top of the handle to hold it together. I would guess it’s 1940s to maybe 1950s?
