Fossil ID help

Recommended Posts

I found this stone outside my house and have never seen one like this before. Could it be a fossil of some kind? I live in oregon but this could have been brought from somewhere else by the previous owners if the house. Any help is much appreciated!

It looks like orbicular jasper/ rhyolite. See if a metal knifeblade scratches it. Jasper should not scratch.

My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned.
