🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Need help to figure out what this iron sign went to?

[Casey13]

Good Morning everyone! I went out for a few short hunts this past week and found some cool things!
I found this old iron sign or plate that attached to something on the way back at the end of the day. I can't figure out if it was a sign to a business or home, the back of it is also kind of curved. I also dug this little cap or screw cover that has three letters on it. I got lucky and found an old coin spill that gave me my first war nickel and silver quarter too!!

Thanks so much!

Possibly an Advance-Rumley steam tractor or other impliment from them

It appears to be slightly curved. Maybe a wood stove name plate

there was an Advance Stove Works in Evansville, IN from 1905-1950s

There was also a very early Advance traction engine made by Geo. D. Pohl from Vernon NY.

That is a cool find.
I would drop that in the electrolysis tank and display it with pride.

Thank all you guys so much!! I can see it possibly being part of a stove name plate. I did drop it in the electrolysis tank late yesterday to get the rust off!!
