Hello,
Single small object should generally pass through the system.
However be careful of objects with sharp edges.
Also rarely, small children may inhale objects rather than swallow.
If he is not experiencing any symptoms, it’s likely to be fine.
Next Steps
Watch for any stomach pain.

Better to get a xray abdomen erect.
However - a stone such a size can pass in stool unnoticed.
