    So I was in my back yard digging holes for my new fence and I found this. The numbers on the bottom read 5703, hoping someone has some insight into what this is and if it has any value.

    Could it be part of a candlestick? The weighted ones tend to break around their joints.

    looks like an old pewter salt shaker depending on its size.

    Aquitaine Is What It IS! But NEVER BORED!

    ALSO, depending on it's size, could it be an OLD urn???????

    Hi,
    How big? Like a planter or small like a salt shaker?

    Classic shaker shape - plus the threaded top.

    I don't think it has any value - too far gone. Might have been silver plated zinc originally.
