unidentified lead

[Curbut]

Finally got out for a while yesterday. Found some 1940's silver, random farm junk and the thing in the attached pic. Anyone have any ideas? The quarter is for scale and this object is very old, solid lead, about twice as thick as the quarter.

Looks like a ladies dress hem weight or curtain weight.
