This may sound far out but I've seen pads or discs that people wore on their shoes to enable them to walk on bogs, marshes, and soft ground ?

What size is it?

What is it made of? Metal, leather, cheese...?

Did you find it on top of the ground or dig it up?

The two attachments look like they could be part of a suspension.

It’s about 8” round non magnetic with iron straps on back that are riveted on . I found this in an old farm field about 8” down, it originally was flat and seems it was hit by farm plow many years ago and broke this piece off, beautiful brown patina, I have cleaned a small piece off and see it’s silver in color could it be an old decorative item on a wagon or sled or a breast plate.

You can’t bend it . it got hit by a farm plow and shattered this piece off
