First year Rosie, couple of wheats, lots of clad and Indian Lead Bead??

[Hogtown Hunter]

Started good with a 46' dime off the bat. So thought this lot was going to hold some old coins. But besides the two wheats, 49' and 55', that was about it. This white bead looking object is made of lead I think. Heavy, not magnetic and white patina on it. The hole in it is hand made. Not by drill bit. It's more oval and has irregular shape to it. Its wider at one end as if used in circular neclace. Maybe used on fishing net?? Would love to hear your opinion. Found in Florida so if it is Indian it would likely be Seminole. Looked online and couldn't find anything about lead being used as jewelry?
Thanks for looking. Jeff

I don't think you mean you found a 46-fooit dime, so I'll guess it's a '46 silver Roosy. Congrats!

Congrats on your '46 Rosie!

Maybe re-post your "lead bead" find here... What Is It?
I'd be interested to know what it was from?
