Meteorite or rock?

[SeaninNH]

I posted this in the meteorite section, but no one seems to be replying so I figured I would try here.

I found this while out metal detecting. It weighs 34.1 grams and is 2" long X 1" wide X 3/4" high.

It is a lot heavier than I expected it to be when I picked it up.

A magnet does stick to it easilly and it seems to have a little black crusting on it that you can see best in picture 4.

Thanks for any info you can give.

Most metals found on Earth are either man-made or a meteorite. A piece of metal without holes or bubbles in it may be a meteorite. If you think you've found one but aren't sure, rub your find on a piece of unfinished ceramic tile. If the streak is red, the mineral is hematite and not a meteorite. If you don't have any ceramic tile lying around, try to break a piece of your find off. If it is a meteorite, it will be similar to naturally-occurring steel, and you probably won't be able to break it no matter how hard you try.
