The claimed ornamental design is shown embodied on an assembly that may be used, for example, as a can end and/or a can assembly. In an illustrative example, the claimed ornamental design may operate to close a container (e.g., a can) such as, for example, to contain contents (e.g., liquids, powders, solids, gases) such as cleaners, topicals, medicaments, and/or beverages. The broken lines shown in the drawings illustrate portions of the can end, as well as a can in FIGS. 5-12, that form no part of the claimed design. Gaps between parallel lines interrupting a line, and/or a bracket spanning at least one side of a gap, indicates indefinite length. This disclosure encompasses at least a corresponding embodiment in which the gap and/or bracket is removed and the length of the corresponding line is as depicted without interruption.
