Do I see a Flat spot in the picture? Where Spur ,may have been cut off?--At about the 2 O-Clock Position.?

An exact diameter in inches gives you the caliber...

.50" is a half inch, which is 50 caliber. The caliber can be used, along with the weight, to determine exactly what you have.

Davers wrote "spur", but he meant "sprue".

My uneducated guess is pistol ball.
