Found this in my front yard. I have found several 3 ringers and two ringers in the same area. There was a large Confederate camp where our houses sit just outside the city of Montgomery, AL. It is slag, but it has what looks like a ring at the bottom and what looks like a star on the back. Or it could just be how the lead fell.

I don't see a ring or a star, maybe show a close-up photo of them.

Just click on the photo to enlarge, then click again for even larger.

After looking at it closer I think I see what you believe is a ring and a star but to be honest they just look like how the lead fell, done by coincidence.
Its old lead for sure given the white patina and could have been from a bullet but its hard to know for sure.
