On my walk this morning I found a strange object. It is metal that is heavier than it looks. It's size and shape are simular to an elongated egg. It is shiny pearl black in color and is a very strong magnet as well. It's stuck to my washing machine. It is very smooth and perfectly shaped with no seams or imperfections. When I picked it up it felt cold to my bones and the areas that had contact with it feel a bit sun burned now. I'm not sure how to google up info on it and I would feel silly calling any authority at this point. Can anyone identify it? Can anyone tell me how to word a google on it?

Hmm...It does sound like I found it on my washing machine doesn't it? I found it in an apartment parking lot.

You were out taking a walk and found it sticking to your washing machine. Where you from?
Sounds like polished magnetite. They sell them in rock shops and novelty shops.

Hematite, or perhaps Magnetite. No concern. Only Neodium possesses a strong enough magnetic field to cause physical harm. It could be any of these three. In essense, don't worry and have fun with it.

Try googling "alien death machine", see if you come up with anything there? :o)
Or try the link below, which I got by googling "magnetic metal egg".
Cheers

Could be an egg of an alien. Go to the FBI immediately.
