    Colonial tool?

    Dug at a 1700s site, this copper relic looks to have been attached to something at one time. Maybe a tool or something?
    I also posted it at www.justgodetecting.com new forum
    Thanks for looking

    I had an old snow shovel with something like that.
    It had a half rounded steel blade and steel rivets fastened it together.

    my first thought as well, don't think its very old, might be structural farming type stuff

    My first thought also . . . a very old flag pole holder.

    Nice find Mike!

    I love hunting old relic sites . . . as I feel
    the imprint of past lives often linger there.

    I view relic sites as windows to the past, sacred places
    in a way, yet at the same time attesting to the reality
    that the past is still very much a part of our today!
