Found this copper item a few days ago- quite heavy and measures 2.25 inches at the widest. As always thanks for the help!

Thanks for the help- that was my guess. It is just way more heavy duty that the heel taps I've dug in the past. Mid 1800s check with you?

If it's copper or brass, then it isn't a boot heel plate.

Wouldn't last two weeks.

Hm, I've definitely recovered copper heel taps- not sure what else it might be.
