I’m assuming this is a plow share as it was found in our farm’s field, about 8 inches down. We used to plow and harrow this field for years but that equipment never had this angled/curved piece. As the farm dates back to the late 1700’s, it could be of an earlier era....? Any thoughts as to a general timeline this might have been in use?

It looks like part of a fence post to me, but that could just be coincidental.
