I got a duck egg this morning that's bigger than my usual Swedish black eggs
Could it be a Peking egg?
Here it is compared with two of my hens eggs

It sure looks like my Pekin eggs. Mine weren't white like a chicken egg, more of a pinkish cream, more cream than pink (is that even a color?!). The Pekin egg will be about twice the size of your Swedish or chicken egg. I know some of my Pekin eggs were so large, I wondered how she could pass them!

My girls aren't laying right now, they are molting AND we are having bobcat issues, they are stressed!, needless to say.

I am sure different ducks lay eggs that are different shades. You said you have a Swedish that layed black eggs. My black Swedish layed grey eggs. My opinion is if it is significantly larger, the egg has to come from a large bird. I would say it's from a Pekin. It's terribly confusing when you have lots of birds. You can separate them overnight and see who lays what.
Good luck!
