Found this today at old homesite. Its about as big around as a silver dollar. The red stone eye is pretty cool. The back has the band of metal across it with the thing in the middle of it. Cant see any markings front or back.




Also, here are all my finds from today. If anyone can help me date the padlock Id appreciate it!

To me, it looks like a bolo slide.

Horse rosette. Late 19th or early 20th C. Cool!

Your padlock looks like a "Tinnie", a nickname from the pressed steel or brass design. Their hayday was turn of the century to the twenties...+/-
Many being made before and after though. Hard to tell from the pic, but pretty sure. Most had a word or two across the front. If it's brass, you could probably still clean it up.
Sweet.
