A friend donated some lead to my personal cause .....me !
seems he had some left over lead his dad had collected , it came to about fifteen pounds or so of fishing sinkers , wheel weights , leaded glass flashing and these two pieces .........
So ! how many of you of the older generation can say they used these when they were younger ?
As if I am a fine one to talk myself !! .....
by the way , they are really soft !!
( just googled them and they are still in business ...... since 1946 . )

You might check ... they may be worth more as an antique than a bullet.

I'm an Avocational Archaeologist and I run across old lead buttons, bottle lids, and jewelry all the time. People think it's worthless as is , but you might be surprised.

Not quite sure how they were used .... the center holes are a little small for barbell/dumbbell use ?

Avocational Archaeologist (try typing that three times in a row as fast as you can !)
Fascinating ! , .. especially were you are located ! , with the history in your area , you must keep really busy!
The past is so captivating...
