Help ID this nut.

Howdy folks,

I received this nut in a recent acquisition and I'm trying to find out whom might have made it...

As you can see, the sides are perfectly straight and symmetrical and it's got a single cable swaged at both ends instead of the traditional loop. There is one identifying mark on the top end which looks like it could be an "hy" or a "ky" but I can't be sure.





Anyone know whom made this and a possible vintage?
