There's no size reference. Put an immediately undisputable recognizable item in picture with it...

If it's lead, it's probably a seal. Need more info, magnetic? etc.

It is magnetic,
What do you think?
Found in a 1811 homes yard, near a really old water bottling plant.

I believe your right, I think it's a Civil War era Railroad Boxcar Seal. I can see what I think is a small wire coming out of the side of it. I found five rail road spikes tons of big Pieces of heavy metal, a pocket watch and a great old pad lock at the same location. I am guessing the small piece of wire inside it is attracting the magnet. It is just exough pull to old on it.
