Looks like one of those things they use to put fillings into cupcakes.

Looks like a dart head,So with that thought, maybe it is a vintage yard dart head.

Totally guessing here!!!!

It's probably not really what I'm describing...but... there is a company named VMC that makes fishing tackle. They have a lure called a Darter Head that looks a bit similar, but I somewhat wonder if they ever made one of heavy ferrous metal. Does it look like it might have had a loop on the side of the fat, round piece, where fishing line could have been attached?

Again, I really can't fathom that they made an iron lure, but you never know.

It also reminds me of the spike on one of those old-style red, road flares.

It look something like a garbage spike .but a 10oz garbage spike in the woods,on a hill with obvious age and stamped with a makers mark does not seem likely to me.It does resemble a hammer head but I can’t find one like it.
To be honest I found it looking for cannon parts as I’ve found fragments of what I believe to be an exploded cannon.I was hoping it was cannon related ,like for spiking a cannon or perhaps even a type of shot but I can find nothing related that looks quite the same.
