My father found these in a small pile in front of our recliner chair. Any idea what they are?

If you pull off the tip and see that it is a pin. And your recliner is fabric. I think they could be upholstery pins.

The one end has a bit of a rivet look to it. The gray end, not so much.

Somebody in your family lost the implants the aliens implanted in them during an abduction. They’ll be coming soon to find out why it happened.

RA all the Way!

For those in the dark, RA = Regular Army, not National Guard (NG), Enlisted Reserve (ER), or Drafted (US).

I’m going to stick my neck out and suggest they’re something to do with upholstery...maybe driven into fabric and stuffing. The blob on the end would keep it from backing out Of course it’s just a guess.

I wonder how many know that when they see it, not many is my guess.

They would be pins from a hairbrush. The rivet looking end is embedded in the handle and the rubber end is anti-poke cover.

I think they’re Boutonniere Pins, aka Corsage Pins, aka Safety Brooch Pins, usedfor Costume DIY Craft Jewelry Making.

"They would be pins from a hairbrush.

I would agree. We found a bunch of those right where we brush our dog.

I thought I recognized them. Looked like the ones out of my sister’s hairbrush that got dismantled. Please don’t ask me how...
