What does the back look like? Could you clean it, then make more pics. It almost looks like a belt buckle, but we need more pics. Is it brass?

Maybe a broken padlock?

Looks kinda familiar, hmmmmm...
Yes we need backpics. Breezie is right (hey Breezie nice to read again from you)

Reminds me of a latch on a chest or box.

Part of a window latch?

Piece from a gate valve

 

[vhs07]

Half of a gate valve gate.
Notice the "wings" on the side of your piece. Two of these pieces would fit together and the "wings" are what traveled in a slot
as the gate was raised or lowered to open or close the valve. Notice the half circle indention at the top. This is where one end of
the valve stem would go between the pieces and the other end would attach to the valve wheel. Also notice the ball shaped
feature in the center. The mating half would have an indention for these two pieces to line up right.
Here is a modern version of what you found.
