Lead possible shot. Cast shot, flattened by impact on one side and with a crazed and fractured surface, probably the result of extensive post-depositional damage and possibly of heating. The size might suggest this to bewhat remains of a musket ball, while its remaining mass would be apt for use in a pistol. Suggested date: Post-Medieval, 1600-1800.
