Can anyone identify this mold? The only markings are shown in the photo. Approx. diameter is 0.59". the point(or lack of) is what has me puzzled.

Try posting your pics over on the Castboolits Forum, someone over there should be able to identify your mold.

I think it is a hollow base black powder mould. Probably for a 58 caliber.
