Can anyone help me identify this? I found it under the bleachers at my brother's football game nearly 30 years ago. The bleachers/field/entire outdoor facility had just undergone rennovation. The pen in the picture has a ruler on it and the notepad is smaller than standard. This was found in North Texas. Thanks in advance for any information.

Agree geologic, however look like one and very cool...coprolites would also contain some fragments of undigested food, bone etc

I agree with the other remarcable members of this forum. You might have a nice specimen called "fairy stone", if I'm not wrong.

Yup, that's it. I was trying to remember the name. I had a couple of specimens when I was a kid. (50 years ago)

I agree with the others and mostly with @abyssunder, it's a fairy stone. And a nice one.:envy:
