🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Leather mount...info needed

[ironhorse]

Hey hey diggers!
I dug this up and would like to know if this speaks to any of you...clearly a leather mount ( still leather under the back attachment) 2 T over N 24.
The style of the numbers makes me think it's pretty old...dug at a late 1700s early 1800s site. Its brass and is fairly heavy for its size.
I'm happy hear your thoughts on this one

The back view looks like a link from a drive chain. That doesn’t make sense for the leather though.
