Can you identify this?

I found it with my metal detector. It almost looks like an old pulley from a mower or tractor deck, but I'm not really sure. The faces of it seem pretty close together for a belt system.

@NightsWatch Oh, I think you're right! I never thought about that. I live on farmland, and there have been barns here in the past.

@NightsWatch Also, I'm guessing that it has a diameter of about three or four inches.

Could be a wheel for a sliding door, or a pully

@fanuc2013 Yep! I'm still trying to figure out what it came from. It was buried about five inches down, so it's been there a long time.
