Is this an American Indian artifact??

I found this at a lake that is down. It was wedged between two boulders. I assumed it was just a hammered cuff bracelet and tried to polish it up a little. Nothing had any effect on it. Then someone on my post said it might be an artifact and that I didn't want to ruin it. I have no idea! What do you think? I scratched it when I was digging it out and it looks like either brass or copper. A magnet doesn't stick to it. Thanks for the help!

Not Sure but if it is you do "not" want to clean it at all for sure. You could check with the Curator at a local Museum. Good Liuck. Let us know the outcome ok. PEACE:RONB
