I had another half hour so I went back to the field beside my house. Lot's of junk and this thing. No idea what it is but I posted it in the What is It forum.

Sorry, I should have explained it better...I posted it in the What Is It forum so I got lazy with the description on this post. It is heavy brass, about the size of a quarter but much thicker. The back is hollowed out and there are two tapered tabs for attaching it to something. There are iron deposits on the back so I think it was most likely attached to something iron.

I did some playing around with it...also sent it off to a friend of mine, hope to hear back tomorrow some time...
