Hello all, I found these two matching pieces about 20 ft apart and 4 inches down. The area has colonial and civil war history as well as history of being farmland. It feels like heavy iron, thanks for your help!

They likely came off of the back of one of these old push culivatators.

Thanks Icewing, that was quick!

@BagLady-it was a fresh find on my lunch break, just wanted a quick ID. If I need any help in the future Ill be sure to clean the piece up before posting. Thanks for the help!

Icewing is right, called a cultivator shoe, also a harrow tooth. When one side wore out you flipped it over. You can still get them at Tractor Supply. Cheers !

Cultivators as pictured were mainly for kitchen gardens...not much good for plowing the back 40...

They are a be-itch to use...spent enough time behind one...
