Found this while detecting a trail at an old park. I don't have the slightest clue what it is. It's heavy and I think it's lead. It has strange indents and one hole, but I'm baffled.

Looks like melted lead to me. Maybe it is plumbers lead.

Can you bend it easily? Does it seem soft (for a metal) when you scratch it?
If both are yes, it's lead.

I think it's lead from a removed metal roof. I believe they used this for the copper flashing...:dontknow: You probably found where the burn pit was.
