I think it may be a musket ball but i may be wrong,,, more knowledgeable people will help out on this

hardened lead/antimony balls of 1" diameter are used as grinding media in large ball mill pulverizers/crushers.only thing I see a 1" used for.
Does it seem hard for lead?

I can't tell you what it is, but based on the rough surface and irregular shape I'm sure it's not a bullet.
