I was going to post this in the what is this thread, but I think we know what it is. Found it at around 8 inches or so where we're finding all of the rest of the iron junk we're finding. This one was in a park we had not yet checked. Didn't stay long because we wanted to get back out to the ball fields and practice hearing some coins in the ground. I kind of like it, but I can't find a lot out about boot heel plates. I found some civil war aged heel plates that cover the whole heel like this one would, but not a lot else. This one does still have a couple nails still in it. Anyway, I kinda like finding this sort of thing, here's a photo.
