I've had different takes on these being the real deal. Heavy little suckers for being that small. I assumed the white patina means they are old, possibly mid 1800s musket shot. Are these too small for musket balls? Possibly new? Not sure... thanks again!

They are not too small to be musketballs. But they might be pistol-balls. Please try to get them weighed on a Jeweler's Scale, in grains (not grams), and tell us the weight of each of them. Then we'll look for a match-up in the weight chart for 1700s/1800s musketballs and pistol-balls.
