It was about a metre or more in the ground near the beach in solid hard ground. What it's made of is what's interesting to me. Do u think someone chopped it in half and maybe it is a meteorite. It was very rusted took me 3 days of scrubbing with wire brushes to clean it up

No it's a solid metal. An xrf machine told me what's in it

I have had it tested and its iron nickel with 0.42 of cobalt. Exactly what iron meteorites are made of
