Found this in eastern North Carolina: 10.1-10.8mm diameter and 18.55g. Any ideas?
 

Looks like someone was board and made a chess/game piece.
 

Looks to be a FIRED bullet, (after it struck something) of what caliber IDK, but seems older because its pure lead, but not anything I've seen that would be considered Civil War..
Personally I would have just bagged it as a spent bullet, the fact that its solid lead says it older, maybe mid 1870s because most modern bullets have some type of brass.
