What Is It?

[Atlantic28]

Found this laying in the bottom of my 1929 Ford CCPU transmission after I removed it yesterday. Anybody have a clue what it is?

It's a little over 2" long and 3/4" wide with a riveted post that is about 3/4" tall.

Looks like the floorboard clip that holds the metal plate around the gear shift.

That's my guess.

I think that what it is also, must have fallen in while the transmitter was being removed. I don't think it would look as good as it does if it had spent any time being beaten up inside the trans.
