A couple of bits of lead here that I've picked up hunting Michigan farmhouses this summer... I don't have calipers or a micrometer, so can't say what the dimensions are.. Was curious if anyone knows what the thing with the round side and sharp side is. Bullet? Random lead thingy? The other one, who knows, maybe modern bullet...has that "old" patina.

Both probably right. No holes through them. Just curious. ….looking for a reason to put them in my musket ball dish ;)
 
The rounded one looks like it was a lead bullet at one point. It looks like it was carved on the pointed end. I wonder if being a farm house a old timer or kid did it and it was used like a pencil to mark stuff. Nothing goes to waste on a farm
