Looks pretty obvious to me.

Of course, since I know what the answer is, that isn't surprising.

Looks more like the packed ball bearings used for shrapnel in an anti-aircraft shell.

Round Shot. Looks like 32 pounders but might be 24's. Only thing that bothers me is the shape dosen;t seem perfectly round, but I dont see a seam so i dont think its canister shot. So I'll stick with my first guess and say its from a Culverin or a Demi-Cannon depending on the weight

'Pears to be a section of a scanned grayscale picture from an old newspaper or perhaps a cheap magazine. 

Oh, you wanted to know what it's a picture of. 

Eggsses it is, we thinks, yes we does, precious.   Turtle eggsses, perhapsss?

Ooooo.  Bill's been rereading Dune.  Or watching the DVD or something.

Wolfwalker - partial credit for being obvious...

Ooooo. Bill's been rereading Dune.

Nope. Just remembered it from the Sci-Fi Channel back about ten years ago, and either Barb or Cricket mentioned it here a few years back.

Geez I just dunno. Maybe if that photo had more grain, I could connect the dots with a pencil and figure it out.

BillT doesn't read Dune, he lives it!  I am sure I have seen him in a still-suit.

I think it's a magnified image of the new one dollar bill.
What you are seeing is the area of the bill that denotes what it is now worth.
In a word, bollocks.
