Original Description:
Civil War Cast Iron Grave Marker GAR Abraham Lincoln Post 11, Charlestown, MA Civil War Cast Iron Grave Marker GAR Abraham Lincoln Post 11, Charlestown, MA ... Click images to enlarge Description THIS IS SO UNUSUAL!
I thought it was a car parking stake. 
However, some great person on Ebay told me what it is.
It is a GRAVE Marker from the Grand Army of the Republic. GAR is a Veterans Association. 
I belive it to be from the Abraham Lincoln Post 11 in Charlestown, MA which was organized in 1868 and is still an active Veterans Association.
The grave marker is such:
IT ALL CAST IRON AND MEASURES 15" long x 7" wide.
IT WEIGHS OVER 1-1/2 LBS.
AT THE TOP IT IS A STAR WITH A TRE-FOIL AT EACH POINT OF THE STAR. 
INSIDE THE STAR IS WRITTEN "POST 11".
JUST BELOW THAT IS THE WRITTEN "CAR" WITH 2 STARS BELOW THAT.
THE BACK HAS PLACE FOR A FLAG.

IT IS A STAKE WITH A POINTED EDGE AT THE BOTTOM AND A CURLY-QUE IN THE MIDDLE SO IT WOULD NOT SINK DOWN INTO THE GROUND.

IT IS SOLD AS A COLLECTOR'S ITEM...A VERY EARLY PIECE OF AMERICAN HISTORY.
