Need some help with a colonial relic

[Pacivilwarluke]

Hey guys, I would appreciate some help with shedding some light on this interesting piece my dad dug in South Carolina at an early 1700s site. It's a lead disc about an inch in diameter with symbols carved into it. In the top row there is the cross of Lorraine and a W and maybe a small x, the middle row has a square with two tick marks, and an I, a W with an umlaut over the first part of the W ( an umlaut is like the thing above this o -> ö) and an o. The bottom row us the 3 numbers 8,6, and 7. Its a very unique piece and I would love if anyone could help me with an ID or set me in the right direction. Thanks!

If that's what it is it's got to be colonial. Interesting find.

its possible the information side was damaged in transit and someone re-wrote it by hand because the info is usually stamped into the lead on one or both sides.
