✅ SOLVED Possibly Civil War ignot?

[CoilyGirl]

Found this a few days ago along with an old compact tin,a round ball a few feet away and my mister found an eagle breastplate as well at the same site. Could this bar be ignot? I've my little tin compact just for fun.it had the remains of a mirror in the top.

Yes, I think it's part of an ingot, it's probably a bit of bar lead for casting bullets. Here's a link to some found in Georgia in 2008.

It looks like on one end some of the lead has been melted off and the ball and the lead have the same patina so its possible. Thanks BosnMate.
