what ever works
A detecting bud found this bullet today .
He has guns but we have not seen a bullet of this size.
It is almost 2 inches long and the base is the size of a dime Thanks Mike

Looks like a novelty...the shell and slug appear to be one.

sounds better than my idea, maybe it has evidence of a broken ring on the end to hang it?
 
It is crusty but real lead almost the size a 12 guage shot gun slug i have .
 
Any headstamp on the base? A pic of the base would help immensely
 
Many of the 44 and 45 cal Winchwster shells had a large base like that.
I have some old pre 1900 45-90 shells that are as big as a dime on the base.
But they are a lot longer than 2".
