R Rpat Newbie Aug 9, 2013 1 0 Primary Interest: All Treasure Hunting Aug 9, 2013 #1 Need some help to ID this. I believe it is a musket ball? It measure around 1 inch in diameter. Feels heavy for it's size. Found it today while detecting a new site. If it is a musket ball, does anyone have any guess at to its age. Thanks!!
