I found this on Saturday digging up some old bricks on our property. We recently just built this house and still have a lot of yard work to do. I found this about 15 ft from the road. The house across the street was built in 1815 and is made of brick, so I assume the bricks I dug up were from the house across the street. I believe the ball is cast iron. It is magnetic, and I believe it is solid. I found it buried about 8 inches in the ground. Dimensions of the ball are 5 inches round and 16.15 lbs. Could it be from pre civil war era.
