The internet says that it's a rocket for an M1 Bazooka.

A Sherman tank?

Some more info at this site. Looks like pointy end on that one wasn't the best design and was replaced with a better one with a blunt end.
http://www.designation-systems.net/dusrm/app4/m6rocket.html
The M6 and M6A1 rockets had a pointed nose, which led to deflection from the target at low impact angles. Therefore a new M6A3 rocket was designed with a much more blunt nose. The M6A3 also had a new circular fin assembly to improve flight stability. The launcher for the M6A3 was designated M9A1. The 2.36-Inch Practice Rocket M7 was an inert training rocket for the Bazooka.
Lets hope that you have a M7 instead of an M6.

How to tell if it's dead...?

I'd call the nearest military base and ask to connect to the EOD (Explosive Ordinance Disposal) unit. Yes, that thing is probably an intert training "iron" round, but it's not worth messing around with.
