      It's a sprocket not a gear.
      Still a cool find in your backyard!

      looks like a horse drawn manure spreader sprocket.

      To me the shape of the sprocket tooth indicates it's the drive sprocket for an early tacked machine (crawler/cat/dozer).
      Here is a similar sprocket with drive hub removed.
