Lightning rod balls were a standard adornment on the lightening rods that were used to protect houses and barns prevalent in the era. Unfortunately many rowdy family members or neighbors also found them to be wonderful larger target balls, thus many were lost to the enjoyment of these people. These two survived.
Each is approximately 5" in diameter. The holes in the center of two opposite points is where the lightning rod was inserted.
As should be expected, there are chips on the shoulders of these holes, one ball more prevalent than the other.
