This large (5" vertically) brass/lead heart-shaped device came from a trash dump here in Vicksburg. It features in relief the capital building in Louisville, Kentucky. It's intriguing in that it appears to be a very thin brass stamping with a very thin lead backing. If that's the case, it is quite old - possibly War Between the States old. It's use is not known. One never knows what he might find in the trash dumps of this old town.
