Hello. Found this lead piece a few days ago at a 1910 homestead. It is a bit larger than a Hershey Kiss candy piece...kinda looks like one too. What do you think? Hem weight? Counter weight? Unknown piece o nothin'?

Thanks for looking and HH.

looks like a sprue

Agreed on the spure. Are there any signs of shrinkage on the flat part?

Found the same thing but not as big as a Hershey kiss! Picture to follow. What is a sprue or spure?
