This piece was found in a neighbor's shop among 2 anvils and other smithing tools after he passed. I do not know exactly what it is, but my best guess is that it's a casting die of some sort. Any thoughts/discussion is helpful, thanks!

From the photo it doesn't appear as though casting anything into it could be extracted.  Might have just been a random piece of something that was clamped in the vise and used as a swage.
