I've had been in possession of this for almost 20 years now and never knew for certain if it was just a rock or if it was a fossil. I unfortunately do not remember how I even obtained it since it was so long ago so I don't know where it originated from. Any insight into what it is will be greatly appreciated!!   It's about 3.5 cm x 3 cm.

Looks like sandstone that's been metaporphosed to some extent, half-way to becoming quartzite.

Difficult to tell with these without being able to hold it.

looks like a partially metamorphosed rock to me
