Hammer ID

Bought this hammer from an estate. The deceased had around a thousand handled tools that they referred to as hammers. He had sanded them all down with a sanding disc and painted the non-contact surfaces black, hence, no identifying marks. This one weighs about 3 1/2 pounds and has concave faces.  The eye has been punched crooked, both top and bottom. And, is rotated opposite directions. Hanging this handle was probably a challenge. There are top and bottom depressions in the cheeks but no flare. It might not have anything to do with Blacksmithing and might not even be a hammer. Have any of you seen anything like it?
