Primary Interest: All Treasure Hunting Aug 29, 2013 #1 Is this a fishing weight? I ask because it appears to be lighter than I would figure for a lead weight of this size. It actually only weighs a third of an ounce. Just curious if anyone has a similar example. Also, is it a modern design? Thanks!
