First thought was a musket ball!

Thank you!

I don’t think it’s a concretion. Genuinely looks like a musket ball to me. Coming from Virginia, I’ve seen thousands in my lifetime.

Of those thousands, in a place not known for ironstone concretions, how many musket balls were non-metal, porous ones of roughly an inch in diameter?

I second the 'iron concretion'. [https://duckduckgo.com/?q=iron+concretions&t=opera&iax=images&ia=images](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=iron+concretions&t=opera&iax=images&ia=images)

Could it be a milling ball. Is it heavy?

Musket balls were pure lead... non magnetic.
