Help any idea what this is? Definitely had a purpose and not broken seems to have a raised stamp on end or could be rust but that area is recessed. Any ideas? Dug very deep 10”, Thanks for any ideas!
A little more info was deep in woods high area of wetland near brook 10+“ deep area dates back at least to early 1800s. 50 ft away found 1864 2C maybe cart or wagon part. Could be anything thanks for all the suggestions!
