Saturdays find at a sale

Estate sale find I thought was cool. Don't know what it is. Paper weight I suppose. Looks like it was used as a hammer. Hope somebody knows.

ps; Can't get my pics to load, damn.
 
Perhaps the weighty part of a wax seal missing the engraved part??
 
I believe that the size is too big for that purpose, 2 1/2 inches diameter, and 1# 6oz., however, I may be wrong. I am not familiar with seal stamps and the sort.
 
May have been a weight to use on an old scale. Possibly an exact weight of whatever the product being sold was suppose to weigh so both parties knew there was no shady business going on.
 
I remember when i was a kid in the late sixtys-early seventys we had an item that looked very similar to yours and we used it as a nut cracker, just assumed that what our item was. :shrug:
 
Well, I'm sure it would work great for that purpose. I'm not one to dispute it being intended for that. Thanks for your thoughts.
