Ok interesting. I can't find that earlier thread, but based on the location of finding, I'd keep it safe until you can get someone to determine the metal alloy.

Sap I appreciate your thoughtful response. I'm afraid I agree as it looks strikingly similar to the one in your referenced post. Won't throw it away, but glad to have some closure. Thank you to everyone who took the time to reply!

It is still worth it for the story of high hopes and dashed dreams.

Based on looks ; fake. Try to make a line with it on paper. If you can it has high lead content.

Whatever you do, don't put it back on the beach! We might get a repeat in this forum in a few more years.
