The hardness of it is unbelievable

 

[jeff of pa]

if it is also light in weight , I would say solder then.
but just my opinion.

I suppose it could also be Melted Aluminum.

or even silver

Is it nickel Nevermind I think nickel is magnetic maybe silver solder or a chunk of stainless

I'm thinking a Budweiser nugget. Build fire, drink beer, throw empty can in the fire. Bingo, you get a nugget. We bet lots of those over at the coast.

Hard like a stone?

 

[hardscapes]

It weights 27.6 grams ...

Looks like dried epoxy to me, the kind that comes in a tube. Some of that stuff can get hard enough to drill and tap.

 

[PapaKins]

Where did you find this thing? I looks like welding slag or, as BosnMate said, maybe a Bud nugget.

 

[hardscapes]

Found it in Bear creek, Medford, Oregon

The object on the left is a quarter with some weird looking black thing next to it. The second picture also is a quarter with the same weird looking black thing next to it. There is also what appears to be a nickel that has partially made it's way into the picture in the upper left hand corner of the second picture.

Maybe it's fossilized poop??

 

[Bruce R]

Looks like a fossil, the inner ear bone of a dolphin or porpoise.

Melted blob of some type of metal.

A blob of platinum alloy in the weird shape because it came from a meteor
