The straight gouge at which your finger is pointing in the third picture, and (to a lesser extent) the thin sharp edge visible in the second picture, do not look natural. If you don't think it is space junk, and you don't think it is an iron meteorite, and you think it is artificial, what do you think it is? Part of a UFO? How dense is it? Have you done the good old Archimedes test - found its volume by putting it into water? How much does it weigh, and how much does the weight drop when it's underwater?
