Lead Weight? Cube With Shaping

[Vermonter]

I found this big old lead cube at a post colonial/early 1800's site. The subtle facets and shaping on it are interesting. Any ideas?

Weigh it... Could be a scale weight.

109 or 110 grams - best my scale can do. Maybe a .25 lb weight? I've never dug a scale weight.
