Does anyone know what this is?

I am looking for a way to source the spring contact shown in the image?

Does anyone know where I can get this from?

Clicking on the photo, a larger clearer picture is displayed.

I think that Mike is wanting info on the gold plated spring contacts indicated by his blue arrow.

I have seen these before, but where that can be obtained or what they are called, I do not know.

Thanks for the reply. I know this is a USB connector. It is a USB inserter used for testing purposes. Maybe I was not clear, but I am interested in the spring contact. Shown by the arrow in my picture.
 
I doubt you can buy just the spring contact. It is part of the "assembly" that is manufactured. If you find a similar USB connector, you might be able to remove one of the connectors to replace the one you want.
USB connectors are a "dime a dozen" so to speak, and those connector fingers are probably not available individually.
 
I suspect they are a special service by the PCB manufacturer, possibly formed-in-place.
