true that some meteorites are magnetic - nickel..., but round...don't think so.
You may have canister shot, being (iron) ??
Anyway, cool find!
Stick With It - It's not *IF* you'll find the good stuff , but WHEN!

unlikely meteorite. But have it checked out. I too think it is too round for an outer space piece
Anything That Comes Out of The Dirt Is Awesome!

Thanks for the input, hard to get pics to describe but it's not spherical. It has ridges and not so round mor flat sides too. It's around a 1/4" and weighs 2 grams

Guess: Almandine garnet with high iron content due to the facets on the stone.

Thanks for the input Smokey, could they be super heavy with iron? Pretty cool looking garnets

I’d confirm Nickel content. If there is Nickel you probably have a meteorite.

I think your instinct for this being a meteorite is correct. The interior looks iron-like. Next you need to take it to an authority. Should not be too hard for California.
