beach find new pics

[Sandmaniac]

I got this on Revere beach on saturday. At first I thought it was a latch to a porthole but then noticed the neck of it was bent and the chisel end was blunt as if it were used for some type of engraving. It measures an inch in width.

Re: beach find

That's Freaky, your dog looks just like ours
And, to me, your find is a work of art - especially if it is 30 feet high and just as wide.
Any possibility of a different pic, preferably with something to show the scale.
Could it be a Maker's Stamp?
Cheers, Mike

Re: beach find

I'm intriqued by have no idea... maybe when you get a chance you can take a few more pics at different angles...

I agree with trikikiwi... 'cept for the dog stuff, mine looks different than yours.

Re: beach find

There is obvious engraving/writing along the shoulder. Please send a clear pic of that area.
Cheers, Mike

Re: beach find

There appears to be a circular shape below the 'shoulder' about the middle of the 'blade'

Kinda looks like a bolt from a door knob, just looking at the wear on the angled side, where it hits the lockstrike. probably from an older door mechanism.

I believe you have the ID! NICE!

The bent over tab on the strike plate illustration is where the bolt hit.

I agree with Tony who agrees with MEinWV that it could be that thing he thinks it is.

Kia Ora, Awesome find and well identified MEinWV. I presume the holes in the 'top' held the springs.
It does look old. Any chance it came from a ship wreck?
Cheers, Mike

Yeah, right on, thats what I thought, probably from a door or a porthole.
Thank you friends.
