I'm guessing this might've been used as some sort of tie for bags? Kind of a draw string sort of thing? What dy'all think? Any idea as to the age? It's about the size of a dime and half a cm thick.

Hmmm. I can't say I see a face but, lead was used in so many different ways back then. It was actually believed to be healthy to have it strewn through your house.

It could be an old water line separator I suppose.

It could be a slide to a bolo tie. Or maybe to a hats strings.
