ilfo3, here is the May 2, 1905, patent. Your toe weight was invented by Arthur C. Olfs of Detroit and assigned to Tuttle & Clark, Detroit.

From what I found online, the value is nominal, but it's great that you have the original box with the literature. Here are some completed listings for vintage/antique toe weights on ebay:
