✅ SOLVED An old Metal Deep Bowl

[cdsieg]

Found this in the creek on my property, I live right by an old railroad station/hotel that was active in the mid to late 1800's, so I am always curious if my finds are some how related. I knew it was a bowl, lol. Aluminum is most likely the material, I am curious if there is anyway to tell how old it might be? Since it was totally under water for who knows how many years it is gunked up pretty good.
I am not having much luck finding anything online to compare it to.

Any info would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Thanks for taking the time to reply, I added the word aluminum to my google search, so it gives me a little more to explore. Thanks again! Cindy
