Alan is correct. This piece came out in 1962 with LEGO Wheels. I have a
European Wheel set #314 (from 1962) that has two of these. They are a unique
piece in LEGO, in that they are not actually white or clear, but a sort of a
milky combination of white and clear. There are a lot of these in later 1960's
sets. And they only connect to LEGO on the top side. You cannot connect them
to any LEGO on the bottom side of the piece.
