Not sure what this is. Is it copper?

Ripvanb,

That looks to be a strain relief used in the installation of telephone, cable TV, or similar wires into a building. Here is a link to one. Also, look at Google images of "service entrance wedge clamp" for many variations.

Keep digging!

It is what we in the industry call a "P-clamp".

The old ones at indeed copper. I've heard tales of people collecting buckets of them over several years and cashing them in at the scrap yard.
