The item in the pictures appears to be a reducing collet. If the outside is the same as a 5C collet, then the inside might fit a 3C or 4C collet. Hardinge used to make reducing collets to let a larger machine use smaller (cheaper) collets. They used to advertise that they would make them for any machine, to fit any smaller collet. Of course, you needed two draw bars, one for the big reducer's threads to hold the reducer tight in the spindle and another to go inside the big draw bar and fit the smaller collet threads. Reducing collets are normally only used in machines or dividing heads that have spindles that take collets directly, not in spindles with Morse taper bores.
I have several reducers that are 6C on the outside and 4C on the inside. I also have some that let a 3C collet lathe hold 10 mm collets.

I don't know how anyone could make sense of that sentence.
"Anyone know what I have? No splits, so it won't tighten up. None of my Morse Tapers would fit. It has 69 on the end."
