    Help Unknown Find

    Found this in a field where I have found horse shoes , Large cents from early 1800 and a Spanish Real from 1724. Any idea what this could be. It does have a little brass areas on it where i must have hit the target. Not solid brass but a light weight metal. Name:  IMG_0404_1 (640x480).jpg
