If it was brass, I'd assume some sort of furniture decoration. But being cast out of solid lead, I don't have a clue as to what this was used for. On the right side it's folded, probably from a plow hit (found in old farm field). It was obviously screwed to something, with two coutersunk holes on either side of it. It's about 1 1/2" high, 3 1/4" long, and 1/4" thick.
The dropped round balls are .45 cal, found within 50 yards of it.
