Surveyor's weight?
I suspect this is some sort of surveyor's plumb weight. I was just wondering if any here agree with that and if possible, how old.
It is about 3 inches long, lead, and as it says, about 6 ounces.
The other one looks to be a more normal fishing type weight. They were both found in a stand of trees at a modern school, a long way from any water.
Thanks!
