Time got away from me with the holidays. I wanted to post this sooner, so now I've got my work cut out for myself with two more posts after this one!!

This hunt I managed two more 69 cal musket balls and some other interesting lead pieces.

Here is a delicate piece. I'm hoping to pick your brains to see if this might be a lead seal. I think it had two loops or "arms" at one time.

This next piece is heavy like lead, has some seams on it like it was cast, and is shaped like a pyramid, but parts might be "broken" off. This one really perplexed me when I found it because I thought it was just a chunk of lead, but I've never seen lead have such linear or flat features along any break. There are also some casting seems.

Let me know your thoughts, thanks for looking, and hopefully you can still get out and detect.
