I don't usually jump to post the eBay wrongs to the list but this auction
got me a chuckle. Some in the US may remember the Happy Fun Ball skit on
Saturday Night Live, a child's ball with more warnings than all the
pharmaceuticals on TV right now.
So, if you're bored, something to read and sorry for the distraction.

100% symmetric

100% perfectly shaped/smooth surface

100% regular texture

size: height approx.=28mm/width approx.=28mm (but it is not a ball)

a relative heavyweight/solid

gathers momentum (for example: own rotation) under certain circumstances

additional information:

the artefact will burst into flames if put in a microwave but it won't be
destroyed for example - you can try many things - you just won't destroy it
