This ball of stone or ceramic material popped up out a hole while I was digging another target, I put the nickel in the picture for scale, anybody got a clue what it could have been used for or what it is?

Looks like a geode to me. Crack it open and see if there is crystals on the inside, if so then it's definitely a geode.

It looks like it was made by someone, it has a raised line in the middle of it

In the ceramic business. They use ceramic balls to grind materials in a giant tumbler to grind the powders. Maybe be a damaged one.

Yeah I could see it being one of those.
They were used in old ball valves.

They also use ceramic balls as fireballs. Used in a gas fireplace or pit instead of wood.
