🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Lead figure(?)

[invent4hir]

This lead figure(?) was found near a farm house dating to at least 1869 and where a log cabin stood before. At first I thought it might be Santa Claus then saw the sash at the waist so then thought maybe a pirate or musketeer. If it is a figure then who do you think it is?

Other artifacts found nearby include an ELCO SECURE pad lock, 1919 Mercury Dime and 1943 Quarter.

Perhaps what's left of a cherub figure?

Thanks Emil W., yes that is a good possibility. I did look into that a few nights ago - and will keep trying.

We'd love to see some of them if you're willing to share
