    My mother bought this at a sale. Just wondering if anyone knows what it is? It looks the same on the other sides. Thanks for any input you may have. Duane.

      Is it Minium?
      "Lead tetroxide. It's rare and occurs in lead mineral deposits that have been subjected to severe oxidizing conditions. It also occurs as a result of mine fires."
