✅ SOLVED Any way to date a stirrup?

[Kapidr]

I found this stirrup after major erosion on a Florida beach. Is there any way to figure out how old it is? I know nothing about stirrups

Thanks!

I found part of one that appears to be identical to yours. Mine was found in Virginia in an area where Confederate relic were dug. I was told it was a confederate officers stirrup.

The one Fullstock posted is very close but not exact. Notice the difference in the strap attachment construction.
