I have never seen anything like it...??

[MUD(S.W.A.T)]

Hello all,

I was hunting my 1800's School House/Home. Since I have no car ATM and no places to hunt. I was hunting about 45 min in my yard with no good finds. Then I found this thing, I have no idea what it is but... It looks cool, and I found it. If someone has any idea what this could be please let me know. I put the dime in the picture for size, I did not find that today.

Thanks all,

Keep @ it and HH!!

It appears to be a lead seal of the type crimped onto wire, on boxcars, utility meters, etc. Similar seals are sometimes used on large cloth bags as well.
