That looks like a big rivet.

Not sure it's one solid piece

That is how some rivets are, one end with a head, like a nail without a point. The rivet is placed into the hole and the other end is peeded over with a air-hammer, peening sledge and or other tool.

Maybe a buoy weight?Or weight for a trotline?

you mention lead, I doubt a rivet would be lead.
I'm guessing its a weight of some kind
