Canuck, these look similar to CNo.7 rear sights.  Missing the eyepiece.  The axis pin was a screw with click adjustable windage.

I checked and there are screw threads in the aperture, as you say they are missing the eye pieces. Interesting finds, I didn't even know they were there.

I'll keep them for now, unless somebody here on the site needs one (trades). They are soaking in mineral spirits (Varsol) right now.
