I dug what appears to be an old lock today. It appears to have been attached to something iron. The site I found it at dates back about 200 years. I am #&$&$^ piss*d off that I tried to straighten it out. I should know better. :BangHead: :BangHead: :BangHead:

Can someone help with the ID/age?

My digital camera is broken, so this scan is the best I can do.
