Found this artifact while Scuba diving in the Manasquan Inlet on the coast of New Jersey. This inlet has been there since 1700's but has moved several times over the years. It is almost 4inches high with three compartments with felt/cloth on bottom. Name on bottom is J.W. Forestal April 1876....Brass with very fine thread screw sections. Photo shows object just out of the water (saltwater) so must have buried in the sand...Have passed it around and best idea is maybe a object to store glass lenses for scope?Any idea?
