Nice going Joel, there are no "maybe's" about it's a spur rawl 1500-1700.
Looks like a fob seal to me the swivel type and is that a watch key on the same chain?

Thanks for that Geoff, Not sure what it is. Could be and there's also another little something on the same chain. Just wish the seal hadn't come away from the chain tho.

As it has no writing I would think it's a pretty generic one which could be bought "off the shelf" so to speak.

OOoooooH get her! Cheesy I do apologise for the clumsy spelling. The smaller more practical ROWELS tend to be of a later date than the more flamboyant medieval type.
