Absolutely no idea...... maybe molten metal from a forge??????
 
It appears to be aluminum or white metal in appearance... lead usually comes up white or hazy gray in appearance..does it feel light or kind of heavy? I hunt a site dates from 1970s back to mid 1700s and I often find molten pieces of metal and occasionally a burnt coin ...I think it’s where they burned there daily trash or perhaps they had a small building fire in the past...
 
My vote is melted aluminum or even silver. Lead should have a white chalky oxide.
