Pretty sure that is part of a flux capacitor. Very ellusive. Good find.

Maybe it would help if you gave some more details. Like, material? Size comparison? Magnetic?
HH!

A person on my forum happen to dig one these things on Sunday as well...two different states.

His was dug in a park that started about 1946.

This is the one my member found.

That is strange. Mine is the exact same thing. Appears to be steel, rather heavy for its size.

I have found half of one of those as well.

This is the oddest thing i have ever seen and i cannot think of anything that this could have been used for. I dug this one on the grounds of a Rodeo parking area. It was about 3-4 inches down.

Looks like it might be a special key to park equipment?

 

[milk86]

The park that the one from Milk86 forum. The park only had normal playground equipment there on site that I can remember I played in the park starting about 1975 when we moved into that area. There was not a shed or any type of water park type stuff. Could have been brought in from tractors for mowing the grass maybe??

The ring in the center looks made to put a finger in. Both ends seems like they might fit into something else, and the longer end makes me think for some reason that it might take a spring over it. So maybe part of a latch of some kind, from a door or a gate?

 

[BillW212]

My other thought was a clock winding key, or something similar.

 

[P47RCFlyer]

It seems awfully big and heavy duty to be a key of any kind. AS far as a latch, i'm not sure. It is a very strange looking thing whatever it is. The shaft on one side is round and smooth. The shaft on the other side is kind like looking at the end of a phillips head screwdriver. My curiosity is killing me on this one, LOL.

 

[milk86]

Any more takers on this??

Hello, there.
Well, from the looks of it.....can't tell how big it is from the picture, but.....looks like a part off an old yoke for hitching together a team of oxen, horses, whatever. That's what it reminds me of. Good find.

Thanks guys. It is not very big. It will mostly fit in the palm of my hand.

The fluted end looks like a masonry hammer-drill bit. Maybe a tool of sorts?

 

[Bigcypresshunter]

Its been posted here before but I forget what it was.

 

[P47RCFlyer]

Sure wish i could figure it out.
