It's lead.. But what is it really?


I found this in Michie,TN along side some civil war bullets and stuff. It kind of looks like a pistol or a gun shape. Does anyone know what this is or came off of? Any help or ideas would be great. Thanks!

Probably carved lead. Soldiers would set around and carve on bullets. My favorite finds. Nice job

Looks like a piece from an old battery cell plate.

Hmmmm I figured it might be something along that line...
