Maybe it's a marcasite burrow. It looks like the ones from here.

When it comes to pyrite (or marcasite), it is really hard to tell if something had fecal origins unless there are visible, identifiable inclusions. I'm not seeing anything that would indicate yours is a coprolite. I would lean more towards a burrow or root cast if from a terrestrial formation.
