It is not a piece of a any civil war (or earlier) artillery lead sabot I've ever seen in my 50 years of studying artillery projectiles from that time-period. No trace of rifling-groove marks from firing, nor any trace of a way of attaching it to an artillery projectile. It might be a piece of cast-iron drainpipe joint seal.
