Welcome aboard!
Put a penny or something that is common to scale the item in the next picture.

Good first finds!
 

Pistol ball or small caliber rifle maybe.

Tucked behind canvas or cloth ect. it could give a tie point. One of multiple uses.
Given the erratic sprue it could be early in a casting run and was going to get remelted. Wrinkles should show from mold not being warm enough.

Or , just carefully loaded to have the crudely trimmed sprue up or down.
 

Welcome to the forum !

Yes, looks like a Pistol / Musket ball from here.
 

Sounds like the size of a pistol ball.
