🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Old clothing iron or something else?

[CAP]

I flipped this out of the ground and said another old flat iron, broken.
Then I cleaned it a little and saw what appears to be electrical terminals on top with the letters THIS BOLT. I looked up first electrical irons but then saw terminals on bottom after further cleaning. Then back to I don’t know what it is or is it missing a bottom that may have held the heating element?

I don't see anything that makes me think it's a clothes iron.

Truthfully, I'm clueless.

Might be something off an old farm implement of some kind.

Resembles part of a mounting base for an old doorbell transformer.

May be since it was dug in the woods of an old farm in the foothills.
