I'm gonna post this in the "what is it" forum, but though I'd try here first since I found it on the beach. Looks like a heavy rock. Rounded on one side and slightly concave on the other. Hit it on the surface with a PI detector and have no clue what it could be? Anyone ever find anything like this?

A rock with enough metal content in to go off on your detector. I have a couple of them as well. Usually formed from volcanic eruptions rapidly fusing rock, quartz, granite, metal, and everything else together.

You got yourself a nice rock!
