Found an axehead the first day we bought our Tracker IV! Need help!

Can anyone help ID or date this axe? I'll be using electrolysis to remove the rust when I move in January, but until then it sits like this. It was found in Zaleski, Ohio. Any help is appreciated

Cool find! Congratulations on your first find.

My first find was a 6" piece of rebar.

Thanks!! We found this and an old horse shoe. I can't wait to clean em up!

Probably what it will look like when you clean it up, it looks like old time shake/shingle hatchet

That actually is the closest thing I've seen yet! I just now ordered the power supply to run electrolysis, so it should be here next week!
