Solid Round Bar

[Mitch]

I am new to the search for lead did well at a local scrap yard the only one that has lead for sale that i know of so far.Most of what i got was sheet(flashing) and pluming pipe.There is one piece still there that i am not sure what it might be.A round solid bar abot 1.5 in dia.it seems to be hard had to use my knife to scrape it,It appears rusty lookin.The bar is about 50 to 75 lbs.Any ideas?

Sure it`s not a cast iron window weight?
The rust and hardness makes me think that....dale

it is about 5 to 6 ft. long and i can bend it if i pull hard.it looks like lead when you scrape off the coating on it.This is one of thoses i wish i knnew what it is.Would go well with the 500 lbs of pure lead i have.I just dont know what came in solid round bars.

Will they let you hack a chunk off with a hatchet or axe?
