thanks for the magnate test forgot all bout that. But did feel like lead to touch. Cape may is surrounded by water sand marsh. Good places for old ships to hide back in the day
I know this is solved.. but I just want to post this.
The white on lead is oxidation.
If the lead was in an environment of very little oxygen with low pH like is found in mud with alot of rotted plant material or under muck in a waterway or swamp like area there can be very little.
These are from a fort occupied from 1837-1839
Older newer. I know its hard to tell but can't hurt to ask. I only ask cause dont they still shoot those type of guns for hunting. Ty all for the help very grateful
