This is probably just an old lead fishing weight, but I need to confirm that fact! I found it about 10 inches down in the middle of a swamp that is currently dry. It's crude, hand made and looks like a pendant to me. It measures roughly 7/8" wide by 1 3/4" high.
I found a couple of pics of similar items that were found metal detecting and are allegedly Indian artifacts from the 1700's. Not sure if that's true, but that's what the article stated.
Please give me your opinion on this item and whether or not it's an artifact or a lead weight! Thanks.
Here's a couple of pics of my find and then two pics I found with a Google search:
