✅ SOLVED Brass Shield Shaped Tag

[trainsareawesome]

Found this along an old mining road in Nevada, road was used primarily between 1850 and the 1920's until it was bypassed, cleaned up brass a bit with wire brush. The holes aren't spread evenly which to me looks hand made as opposed to machine made, other than that I haven't the slightest idea of what this is, any suggestions? Thanks

1st - I noticed this was your very first post - so, Welcome Aboard trainsareawesome! You didn't list your state (or country) in your profile. So, you might consider jumping over to Sub-Forum: Select Your Area.... for information (i.e., clubs, hunts, finds, legends, maps, etc.) directly related to your state (or country).

2nd - Have to agree with villagenut - sure looks like a shoe heel. Here are few "fancy" ones - you will see how similar they are...
