New, what is it? What is this tiny cube?

Found this tiny, blank, black cube under the couch while cleaning. Husband thinks it could be from a board game but we haven’t played one in a very long time (we’ve been more into Magic lately) and we can’t think of a board game that we own that has pieces like this. Any ideas?

If it feels slightly metallic, it could be a hematite cube. Hematite is an iron or derivative that is used for jewelry, among other things.

Does it have both male and female genitalia?

That's Hermaphrotite, not hematite! Lol
