... I think that is part of a check valve from a water well. It seals up the cylinder so that you don’t loose your prime...

Interesting. An accurate weight and diameter would enable the density to be calculated, which might shed more light on what it's made from.
Milling ball is another possibility. It's not beat up, but then we don't know how much use it might have had.
Is it magnetic?

Do you mean it's a magnet in the sense that it attracts ferrous material... or do you mean it's magnetic... ie is attracted to a magnet?

Now I'm confused!
You said "I know it's a magnet" and then "I know it’s not magnetic".
