OT unofficial What Is It .. ?

off topic
I saw an old mystery tool at the local Re-Store.
I was unable to find it after several google searches.
: hand held cast mold - for lead - making 3 lead pieces per pour
: each piece about the size & shape of a man's pinky finger
: but with a ~ 1/8 " groove ~ half way through, lengthwise
: "Appleton London " on the outer casting
: " BF Co." inside to be cast into the three lead pieces
.... large fishing sinkers ?
.... wheel balance weights ?
Any other ideas or web links appreciated.
John T.
