Hi guys
This came off an area of pasture yesterday,
Gave a cracking high range bell tone on my euroace.
Quite heavy but doesn't look or feel like lead.
Not sure if it's clear from the pic's but there are some decorative ridges and what looks like the remnants some Paint ?. It has a clean breake and the area of the break looks more like stone than metal.
Thanks in advance
Adrian

Thanks for your replys folks.
Looks like pot leg is most likely answer,
I have found a more typical plain pot leg previously,
But this one seems a little more fancy.
