I posted this lead cap for my cousin a couple of weeks ago. It has an ornate eagle with bent arrows in its talons.

After doing more research I found out that it is the cap to a Circa 1860 Du Pont Gunpowder Can. The entire can if complete is worth about $1000+. If you look at the eagle on the can it definitely matches the eagle on the cap. Thanks for looking I just thought I would give everyone an update.
