ID:	444103 I was searching a field here in Central Ohio for arrowheads with a friend, when we came across something else...I have no clue what this could be?
    a little back story- It was a friends field and they had just dug some new drainage that went down about 10-15 ft in a few different areas...so we had these huge piles of dirt that had just been unearthed and I had a small window to hunt the piles before they filled the holes back in and flattened the ground back out. It was a muddy mess and we didn't find one arrowhead but we did find this... it seems to be made of black sandstone perhaps? It's a very soft workable stone, had it not been buried so deep for so long I'm sure it would have been crushed somehow. Anyway it's a very uniform cigar shape, tapered at one end with a small hole drilled about an inch deep. The opposite end is nearly a perfect circle and so smooth and flat and balanced it can stand on a flat surface with no problem.
    It doesn't seem to be a smoking device because the hole only goes an inch deep and just stops?
    Any help at all would be much appreciated! I LOVE this hobby but I am by no means an expert.
    Thank you in advance for any suggestions, knowledge, or guesses you may throw my way.
    Stay safe and healthy, Charis V.B. Click image for larger version

      I agree with the battery core call. I run across black cylinders on a regular basis. Welcome to the madness from the Little Miami.

        Thank you all for your input...seems to look like what it is. Is it worth keeping do you think? Or just a tosser?

          Thank you all very much. I'll have to look into that I never knew?
          Are they usually made of stone?
