🔎 UNIDENTIFIED A cannon ball (maybe)

[EnvoyToTheMolePeople]

I was at a museum in Mahwah, NJ and came across this item. They didn't know exactly what it was or where it had come from, only that it was found in a drawer in the museum while some things were being cleaned out. They think it's a cannon ball, but don't know anything else. It's approximately 7 lbs and 4" in diameter. I'm no expert, but I know a few people around here are.

I thought the ball looked a lot like the 7 lb practice shot put ball we used in junior high, but using Occam’s Razor, I’d say a military item is more likely near an old fort site.
