Grapeshot or mill ball

[Justin1978]

I found a solid iron ball on a recently disrupted bank of the MS river at Memphis. It's slightly under 2 inches, most if it covered in rust. I just have my phone and can't get a pic posted with it. Sight unseen, what's your best guess?

Given the location and general description it could be either one. Some decent pics and dimensions would allow a better guess.

It's just short of two inches

Should look something like this cleaned up. Some say Grape Shot. Found this on in a ditch that a road grader unearthed.

Isn't that big for grape shot?
