Any ideas?

New to the site, I found this when I was around 12 under a rock at an old doctors plantation. I've found numerous common coins. My best assumption is it's made of lead and was the bottom mold for a stamp. Does anyone know exactly what it is? If so, what are the symbols and what do they mean. Thanks! Sorry for not having a tape measure, waiting on my 3 y/o to return it.

Thanks, someone suggested for seeds being its farm country here. But still have no clue on the meaning behind the symbols
