Wow! Never found anything this weird. Does anyone have any of these at home? Are they for real?

It is wrong to assume that people of the past were less inventive than you and I are today. Their imagination was rich enough to create a variety of things, some of which were useful, and others were, well, quite strange.

Number 2 is an amalgam capsule used in dentistry. That is not a pill, it is a piece of metal that helps in the agitation process

I didn't even have to guess because you, a genius, spoiled it! ????
