Very weird jar lid (?)

Yeah I read the bit about different shapes and sizes. I like my pickle jar. Now I'm hoping to get a few of the different varieties with the same lid. Swiz

I dug one like that today I like it, I was hope to find more like it since it's surprising I only found that one. the hole I found it in has a ton of broken food jars in it. I have one 10 sided jar it fits pretty good.

Just a couple of months ago I found one just like yours, wheelah, except that mine is embossed "pat. applied for." I assume this means it was made in 1898 or earlier. I'm going to bed now but I'll post a pic in the morning.
