Dug this up and knocked of a bunch of rust to expose this thing. Any ideas? It was found in a old home site.

Mojjax, great to see the picture of the "ox balls" too! I've found many of them and never knew exactly what they were. (must get a montgomery ward catalogue!! )

I believe that there were a couple of "ox balls" IDed on here a while back.
