Horseshoe Help

[bvannada]

Found this tonight. Just curious if anyone can I'd the era from which this shoe might be from. Also is it a real equine shoe of one for playing horseshoes. Thanks for everyone's help.

Looks like equine

Not a playing HS for sure, Use a ruler or a dollar bill in the pic so we can determine the size.

Edit to post picture and explanation. A HS that may fit a small donkey could also fit a Pony so there isn't a way to say exactly what it was made for and in some cases it' not possible to say in which era it was made.

If it has holes for nails it would be the real deal.
I figured d them all the time in a few different sites, mostly in the woods.
Fun to find at first after the first dozen or so it gets a little redundant.

Next to impossible to ascertain age or the shoe as pictured...

I have shoes just pulled off that look as rasty as that one...

Let's just agree its older than a week old...

Actually after a little cleaning it does have nail holes. As far as the find it was a bit special as my 8 year old found it while detecting our backyard. This is our first one so we were a little excited non the less. Don't know much about then is why i asked.

The real question is which foot did it go to?

The real question is which foot did it go to?

I have it narrowed down to four.
