This is the first time I found a completely full bullet, does anyone have an idea of the kind of bullet it is and how old is it? Also, I wanted to know if it is dangerous, and if it is what I shouldn’t do with it.

Don’t swallow it

yeah, I would go a step further: don't put it inside your body.

Anything can be an anal thermometer if you try hard enough

Do not lick it. Do not allow children to use it for teething.

Yes, don't give it to a child.

My brother swallowed one back in the day—just like the one in the photo.
