Size? Seems to have crimp rings. Maybe someone converted a lead bullet into a sinker????
Yep looks like a lead bullet made into something, probably a sinker.

But could it be a Civil War minie ball?
Unfortunately no. It has a crimp ring around it. They came out after the war.

Bummer. Oh well. Thanks for figuring it out.
Where do I look to see the crimp ring?
Where do I look to see the crimp ring?
The rings with all the little lines in them. Civil war Bullets had rings but not ones with lines. AS FAR AS I KNOW!!!!
