I was in a small junk shop today and saw some ingots marked lead. A round disc of lead that came out of someone's melting pot was also nearby. The ingots were a strip of squares still connected to each other. I don't know what it was, but it wasn't lead. Fairly soft, could scratch with my pocket knife, but not my thumbnail. It was kind of shiny and went "ting" when struck. Could it have been tin? The owner didn't know, he thought it was lead. I didn't buy it, just curious. I did buy the disc though.
