    Mystery lead (cartridge?)

    Found this on an 1895-ish house north of KC MO. Will get weights and measurements if needed. Closest object to it in the pic is a Liberty nickel.

    Looks more like a valve stem cover to me.

    Can ya post pic of top and bottom....just wondered if solid or hollow as well as threaded. Most lead gets a white patina. It looks too long for a bullet plus it appears to have a seam in the middle.

    I think you might have a Nichols '45, 2-piece bullet (for a toy cap pistol) that
    was popular back in the late 1950's. A round Stallion cap was placed in a
    shortened bullet shell and the part you found was placed in the shell.

    Cool find. . . (my childhood memories)
