Can anyone identify this? Thanks!

Dross maybe.

spelter (zinc alloy of some type) with a different metal coating most likely originally some fruit for a table decoration.

Looks like an old knob with the threaded insert exposed. Could have come from the shifter on an old car or truck. Tony

Kind of looks like a bullet that has mushroomed back on itself from hitting water or something like that...but it's big...and has some kind of coating?

i think a fired bullet that mushroomed on impact is right.
you can still see the original shape of the base.
