    Mortar Identification Help

    I bought this at an antique shop for $14 because I thought it was pretty cool. I can’t figure out what it is though. It is 2 inches by 10.5 inches. Can anyone help identify it?

    I think I have to say was probably the best 14.00 you've ever spent. That is a sweet piece.......Dano

    Its value in Spain is around 20 euros and if you are interested to know your part, are fairly common in this country.
