lead cylinder

[RussM]

Hello all... found a lead cylinder today in the woods, buried between some roots, good patina... 50.3 grams in weight, 18.34mm in dia. and 20.35mm length. What information I could come up with is a cast slug. Here are a couple pics. Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks...

You mean piston? I found a cube about the same size. I think it's just old plumbers lead.

It was on a trail in old conservation land, nestled under some roots about six inches down. It hadn't seen the light of day in a long time by the look of it.
