Roman Spoon?

So I just got back from Europe and I was wondering if this is a roman spoon?

It does look old, but also it looks made of iron. I'm no expert, but would think any Roman Age artifact made of iron would have had very little chance of not rusting completely away to dust. This is why so much of Roman artifacts found are bronze. I would say it is an old iron spoon used to skim fat or it had some other special type of purpose...... This is only speculative on my part.

Yea I am thinking its from the war but I seen a picture of a similar looking spoon that was roman.

Anyone else have any ideas?

I'd bet with 18th-19th C.

Yea I have seen similar shaped spoons from that age too.
