This piece intrigues me,any idea what it was for? It's to perfect to be a melted piece.

Size wise.Very interesting... I found something very similar the other day in a farm field also. At least I think thats were you said you found it WT. What I have is also lead and tear drop shaped. It first thought it was a fishing sinker but it also has no eyelet for line. It was found at a site that was gone over 125 years ago, everything I dig at this site is old. My best guess would be some type of hem weight. ?? Mine seems a little smaller then yours WT. Non pointed side appears to have a flat spot with two small groves. Patina on what I have doesn't look over 125 years old though. View attachment 998703 View attachment 998704 View attachment 998705
Looks like a short pour on a pistol bullet mold.That was poured from the big end.On a short pour the lead wiill be rounded from the pour end.It looks like some that I have made when I didnt have enought lead to pour a complete bullet.
