Heavy metal ring.

[ROBBYBOBBY64]

Surface find. It is very heavy. Strong rust that doesn't stain your hands. I seems to have been made and welded, or repaired at one time. Wonder what would have broken a ring like this? The ring, rings like a bell, ironically. It would make a great door knocker, or can be used for one hell of a game of ring toss.

From a ship?

I am thinking an old trailer or cart. I can see the inside of the ring has been worn flat, like it was attached to a hitch but not a ball hitch.

Looks like it might be Part of a yoke for a horse or ox team. Was it the site of an old farm?

No doubt. I have pulled out a number of ax heads, half heavy hoe half sledge hammer looking heads, I even pulled a old rotten wooden and metal hame. Still had some leather straps or what was left on it. That's part of a harness for a horse. Lots of barbed wire insulators too.

Might have been used in a barn for a pulley system or something like that, farmers would use anything they could get their hands on.

Very ingenious people. They most likely made items for use. This looks made to me.

I was wrong about the ring being welded. I was informed by my welder friend that it was all forged together. Here is the forged connection. It is on a strong angle so more surface area to fuse. I love this stupid ring.
