C'monfolks. People have already expended a lot of effort trying to help on several threads here. But we're receiving numerous letters from people around the world who think maybe they've hit the lottery, and they won't take "it's not precious" nor "take it to a scrap dealer for analysis" for an answer.
Hoyt was/is a metal company so they cast ingots of babbitt and other metals. It's probably reasonably high quality common metal, but it's common stuff, it's not platinum or rhodium. That pretty much covers it, and I don't think there is much more to say.
So list it on eBay if you think someone would be proud to own the ingot, or take it to a scrap dealer who will probably give you a dollar or so a pound for it. If you take it to a junk yard that has a scrap-sorter x-ray machine they can tell you the exact alloy analysis, and what they can give you for it, but it's going to be a couple of dollars a pound, tops. Good luck!

How do you find the volume of an ingot?
To find the volume of an ingot, you can measure its length, width, and height and then multiply these dimensions together. The formula for calculating volume is Volume = length x width x height. This will give you the total space that the ingot occupies.
how is tool steel made?
Tool steel is produced by one of two different methods. They are the conventional method and the powder metal method of production. Most tool steels are produced using the conventional method. This method involves loading a crucible with the proper amounts of each element including iron, carbon, manganese and chromium etc. An electrical currrent is passed through the charge through use of an electrode. The metals melt and are poured into a mold to form an ingot. This ingot solidifies and forging and rolling processes are performed on it until it forms the desired size and shape. In the powder metal process, the metals are loaded and melted in the crucible, then the molten metal is passed through a high-pressure gas jet where it is immediately frozen into micro-ingots. Each one of these micro-ingots has the same chemical composition as the original melt. These micro-ingots, or powder, are encapsulated and hot isostatically pressed to form an ingot. This ingot is finish processed the same as the conventional method. See the related links below for more information on tool steel production.
