I found this item in a field today. The field was used as a race track at some point in the 1800's then became a woods which was used by the local Catholic church for picnics. At the beginning of the 1900's it became a farm. That is all I know of the land use. The item is a slightly curved plate about 2.25 inches long and 1 inch wide. It is metal, but I do not know what kind (silver?) It has a very ornate design on the front and is blank on the back. The right side has a 1/4 inch vertical opening for a strap or latch attachment. The left end is slightly notched with two small tabs. Then entire piece has fold-over style tabs in the back. I haven't a clue as to what it may be from, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
