Glass whatzit?

[Ye Olde Prospector]

I haven't been on here in quite a few years. With this covid thing going on been playing around on the computer. Most of my collection is packed up and is stored at my home. This item was from an old hotel dump. Looks to me like an iron wire in the center that piece. I think it was once a long pin. Probably was once the lobby, at the desk, to pin notes or receipts on. Thank all for your replies over the years. My own guess ???

I still collect old bottles if, I spot old dumps in the middle of the woods, while deer hunting etc. here in Maine. Keep an eye out for old foundations and field stone piles.
