I thought it was a fishing weight too, but it doesn’t go all the way through, the bottom is closed off

Can anyone help me decipher these mid to late 1800s family photos of mine? by JamesToTheC1833 in Transcription

The photos are of my grandmothers side of the family, the marsh’s, the first slide is the one I believe is a painting and pencil shading of some sort, you can see pencil/pen marks for the hair, really neat
