I wasn't sure what else to call this. I found it along a very old (civil war) railroad today. It has a very badly rusted pin in the center that looks like it was cast in place. There is a wire groove on one side. No embossings. The strange thing are these three indents in the bottom like it sat on top of some other piece to lock into. Any ideas as to what it is?
