Found an old farm which last existed around 1980. It is remarkably thin and brittle. It looks like it’s made of copper or brass. 817CA4C0-E62F-4388-AE4B-0AF48B186872.jpeg4B02E2B6-4F44-45E3-94C9-48F932A3E839.jpegVery interested in what any of you experts out there think what this thing specifically is.

It is a Ford hubcap off of a Ford Tractor .. The Model T aslso used them.
 

I think I have one too... don't know what it is though. Found it at a house site from 1880-present that is on top of an 1820ish site.
