Copper artifact (what is it!?)

[Andyjohnston110]

My dad found this copper piece while hunting in the upper peninsula of Michigan. Wondering if anyone knows what it might be or what it was used for. Thanks!!

Shape resembles a broken butt plate, wouldn't be copper though. Brass.

The natives used copper for various artifacts. That said it kinda looks like a point but is off just a little. Nice find however.
