A iron spur from the right place.

At a known CW site where a friend had found 50 bullets I got this spur yesterday. My question is does being a wrought iron piece mean it's certainly that old to be from CW. Thanks for looking.

To be honest, I'm not sure it's a spur..it's looks like far too
thick of iron.

My first thought was that it could be a bullet mold.

I don't think it is a spur either. No place to attach the rowel.

Ok, thanks.

Looks more like a gate hinge.

Items like this are good candidates for electrolysis . Hand forged wrought iron can be very old.

Can you post a side profile?

I think it is very old also, but not a spur. I have seen them before...somewhere. I was thinking off a wagon, or a gate.
