I just dug this today, in a very old early 1800's area. It is super encrusted with rust. I am putting it on electrolysis right now. It is killing me on what it is. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. ;D Here are two pictures of this whatisit.

Hard to really do anything other than guess until its cleaned up but possible an ox shoe (those were 2-part shoes for cloven-foot).

Thank you for the reply. :icon_thumleft: That would be one big ox lol. It weighs about 3 lbs at least. I have no idea still. I have it on the machine as we speak. I hope it is something recognizable.
