Found this at 6 inches in a yard in a town that was built in the early 1770s? Is it a horse and what time period? image.webp

That's one big horse.Congrats on the finds.
 

It’s not a horse, but yes, it is a horse shoe. Couldn’t tell ya the age but looks like typical age of the 1800’s ones I pull.
 

IMHO: The horseshoe is from the 1800's. There has been a poster or two posted by I believe one of the Moderators (VPNavy) recently. :icon_thumleft:
 

It is darned near impossible to date a horseshoe.
 

Theres a cool relic
 

Also welcome to tnet
 

It appears to be very large; possibly for a draft horse. Nice find!
 

or a ox --ox shoes
 

Oxen have split hooves, the shoes are in two pieces. Horse shoe for sure.
