OK - here's a clue.

Biscuits - we think.

Well the biscuits Connie had at the Sun were Huntley and Palmers, and it was her lids they used to cast the lead.................

I have been thinking along the same lines (impression left in the lead ballast weights by an embossed logo in the biscuit tins used to cast them), but I can't find a biscuit company logo that matches. Maybe it it something a little more obscure, like the logo of the company that made the tin itself?

I would venture to suggest that the logo as posted on this thread might be the wrong way up. Looked at the other way, it resembles a stylised figure wearing a big chef's (baker's?) hat.
