Thoughts on this Geode/Dino egg?

Recommended Posts

Hi guys not been on much due to limited internet sorry however I had ordered a 'geode' from a seller in China cheapish it is around 1.9kg in weight and it arrived. It looked like something I had seen before and sure enough I found similar listed as a dinosaur egg on the famous auction site, just wondered everyone's thoughts on what it actually is lol? couple of pics attached, im sure it is neither an egg or a geode personally

It may be a septarian nodule.

I doubt it? but maybe? it came from a crystal dealer I've dealt with in China for a while for crystals/rocks mainly, they just said they thought it was a geode but wasn't sure either, didn't sell me it as anything really other than a possible geode

It looks like a septarian that has been mechanically shaped, then treated with acid.  Beautiful, for what it is.  :)
