Did you clean off the tin slag and separate the copper? If it's clean pure lead it's worth its weight in ,,,,,,lead.

Yes.

It’s in pure lead ingot form.

That's lots of work. My neighbor built a "furnace" that was wood fired made from old water heater tanks. He then ladeled the lead into bread loaf pans. The fumes were pretty dangerous. I don't know where he sold it but he made a good living at it.

I’ll post pictures of my smelter I made. It worked really well. It was a lot of work but not too bad.

My plan was to turn it all into lead shot then sell my shotmaker to open up more floor space in my garage.

Currently, I just have it all stacked, waiting for the opportunity at an early retirement lol.

I do a lot of casting and powder coating of bullets.

Pretty much every jeweler, pawn shop, coin dealer, etc buys gold and silver now as long as they can make a profit. Take what you have to several and sell to whoever offers the most. Your local jewelry store could be the best deal in town.

In 2022, crazy conspiracy theorists, that seem to be right most of the time, said to buy silver because its real value is $350.
