Someone sent me these pictures. The person had seveeal Civil War era pieces and this was with them. Can anyone identify it for her?

Don't really know but for some reason I think it might be some type of powder scooping/measuring device.

is it a large brass chime or musical type bell with the inside banger missing

Carl is correct, I think... a powder or "shot" measure, it was part of a flask or bag.

Regards,
Pete
