THIS IS AN OLD ANTIQUE OX YOKE PIN. IT WAS USED TO NOT ONLY HOLD THE BOW IN PLACE , BUT WITH THE DRILLED HOLES IN THE BOW , IT WAS USED TO ADJUST THE SIZE OF THE LENGTH OF THE BOW. MADE OF STEEL THE COMPLETE LENGTH IS 4 3/4" PIN IS ABOUT 3 1/2" LONG AND 3/8" THICK .ALTHOUGH THERE IS SURFACE RUST ALL OVER, THE SPRING CLIP PART IS IN GOOD WORKING ORDER. A LITTLE LIGHT PITTING. USEABLE BUT WOULD ALSO MAKE AN INTERESTING DECORATION.
