At 300g a little light for weapon (mace or flail) I would say some sort of horse tack or alike.
it's really bronze and non brass
i don't know the period but it's very old
Bronze was also used in the Middle Ages

In my opinion, archaeological pieces cannot be discussed about their authenticity, after pictures only. Too many are the factors that could deceive, even if the piece would be authentic.
Also, the subtle difference between bronze and brass (resp. an alloy of copper/tin and of copper/zinc), absolutely cannot be identified after a few although good pictures of a strongly patinated piece).
The object in se, looks like part of a Luristan flail or mace.
Etruscan or Roman weapons of this kind, are different.

When some parts are too much odd you must be very suspicious.
I know a guy in merida who is making roman art and everything you're looking for with original roman metal and original aging during a few years burring them
