Help! Looks so close to a breast plate . . .

It looks SO close to a breastplate without the lead. Thin brass skin. No markings. But pretty LARGE to be a breastplate, don't you think? Colonial Virginia home site with many period relics . . .



Four inches across.

Too big for a breastplate.

What is the image on it? I can't make it out. Just an eagle or other things as well?

Totally plain. No image. Just dents.
