✅ SOLVED 30 pounds of Iron...

It took me ten minutes to get this thing out. I really don't know why I bothered. I was exhausted afterwards. Should have left a "pre-dug" hole and let my hunting body get it. Anyway, found near the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. Truly massive in size...That is a large brick it is on.

That looks like a broken piece to a pipe flange. Like what is used and welded on big pipe, (gas pipe or steam pipe type stuff? )The inside edge even looks beveled.

I agree and probably from a repair or installation of a pipeline running under the Bay! A bunch of those could get you a little gas money at the Recyclers, considering that you are a long way from home or at the least, the place where you make your' home.

I was thinking part of heavy equipment tire ring.But pipe flange sounds right also.

Thx guys. Appreciate it. This one was just curiosity.

You might be right! Now looking at it, it doesn't look thick enough for a weld flange. Unless it was low pressure, maybe.
