Musket ball?
Could this be a musket ball? I found it at the beach. It's seamless, no holes or cuts. Still, I was just thinking it was some sort of fishing weight until I saw someone's post of their musket balls.

Looks like a ball bearing to me. Probably steel. Way too smooth for antiquity.

It is magnetic, Geez, thanks for the suggestion...that dark gray appearance had me assuming it was lead.

Musket balls usually look more like these.
Three on the right are somewhat flattened from hitting something. __________________
