	Hi Joe, I agree with Seldom...Looks like a bronze or brass rigging spike! « Reply #11 on: March 19, 2011, 12:19:57 pm »

But more than likely is a sail or riggers Marlin Knot tool.

They wouldnt use these made out of Brass or Bronze for rigging spikes or nails, too precious of a metal for spikes or nails...

Nice find, I've found a few iron 1715 plate fleet wreck rigging spikes and they look very, this is much larger in diameter and metalic make-up.

Cheers, Great

Jim

Hello everybody, I found this some days ago close to a wreck site. Is it just a ship's nail or what is it? I guess it is brass but I am not sure...
