Here is mine. Found this item in a school yard. The school was pretty new. But land could have been old. It measures 3"x2". Believe it to be made of bronze. Best I could come up with is a door knocker. Like to hear your thoughts.

Boris,is there a chance that item has been bent?If it had been straight it would make it easier to get the screws in or out.This would also make a difference as to its use.

There is no sign of it being bent. Best I could tell, it was made that way. Seems to be bronze. If it bent. Should have cracked.
