Kevin spotted these on the road and when he stopped to get them it totally mortified our preteen and teenage sons. Needless to say no one we have asked seems to know what they are for. Any ideas?

I can't get the close up of the other side to show up. So when you turn them over they are flat with two holes in them. One a little bigger than the other.
Kevin thinks they look like some kind of crimper.
Maybe some type of wire strippers for the electrical linemen?
I suggested that but Kevin said there is not a sharp cutting edge in the hole.
Hmmm...
Quite obviously those are kid mortifiers and are to be hung over the door or mantel.
Whenever any disciplinary action may be deemed appropriate, just a quick glance at the mortifier will be all that is needed to restore tranquility. ;D
:D :D :D

Swedge crimpers for spliceing cable. Power company or a linemans tool.
my dentist tried to use something that looked like that once.
Could be a "LIMB-RITE". :)

One of my friends is always picking tools up in the road. I don't see many. I guess I must travel behind him. :D
I've picked up many things on the road, best find was a chainsaw, I took it back to its owner, I had seen him drive by with the tailgate down a while before I left my dads. I found a wallet with a wade of cash in it another time, it was laying on the road between railroad tracks got that back to the rightfull owner too...
On a fishing trip once we stopped to pick up an oar, a life jacket, another oar and a few other 'fishing gear' we stopped for lunch at a lakeside on our way up and there was a couple of trucks with boats on trailers already there, they where huddled around one trailer, well wouldn't you know it it was loosing its load, I was happy to give them back what I had found on the road. We ended up going fishing at the same lake. They where from Pennsylvania and sure where glad to get there oars and jackets back.
Oh yea,I forgot about the chainsaw I found. I rounded the corner just up the road from me and there it was, a small Husky in the road. I stopped and picked it up thinking about how I will find the owner. Told the wife I'll have to put something down at the store. Just about than the guy at the corner shows up,I know him, and said I was glad to see it was you holding that saw. It fell out of the back of his truck when he pulled out onto the road. He remembered it a few miles up the road.
