The elements haven't done this item any favors. It doesn't look very uniform, kind of like slag. Sorry I couldn't help more. Good luck on the ID.

Looks like an old kids playing jack, aka jackstone. Not a caltrop.

I thought it looks like a playing jack too.

My bet is on playing jack piece. I haven't seen one of them in centuries.

A caltrop is meant too inflict serious injury too a foot, dont think this would inflict injury on anything not even a bird only thing i can see is a mushroom! good luck

I'll go along with early Jack ( if that's what they were called then) I have found a couple Jacks that look pretty much like the modern
ones but they are Victorian era.
