I was detecting an area of Ohio River bank today when I found what appears to be a cannonball and a smashed 3 ringer bullet within 10 sq yard area. The iron ball is very coroded and weighs approx. 3-5 pounds. What do you guys think?

exact weight and diameter, please.


And I'd love to see a photo of the bullet if you get a chance.

Here is another pic. Also after some cleaning I noticed the bullet only had 2 rings on it
