large chunk of camp lead

[carnage1on1]

I dug this large chunk of lead in a civil war camp. Is it worth anything? Or is it just a paper weight?

as a relic i couldnt say to be honest. i would assume not but as i said i could be wrong. but on the other side it has to be a couple pounds of lead so it is worth something as scrap.

P.S. Are you sure it is lead?

That's a big piece of camp lead! Ones that big could have other relics inside them that became entrapped when the lead melted like small brass items, especially if it came out of a fire pit along with other items that were considered trash at the time.
