Phishwood Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I have had this in my collection for nearly 20 years. There is a story on me finding it, but I will hold off on that. I am curious if anyone knows what it is for certain. I have my ideas. It feels and has a weight that seems to be petrified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnJ Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 For certain, it isn't a "petrified" organ. Still, a plausible ID could be assisted by a general location it was found. These two photos appear to show an iron based concretion or pseudomorph.

Phishwood Posted October 17, 2019 Author Share Posted October 17, 2019 I guess it could have iron in it. It has a smooth feel. Found in an area that is a trail in the woods but was a fresh new trail. Some water erosion through that area perhaps over time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnJ Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 By general location, it would help to know the county and state. Try getting some better focused photos with more than one light source or in daylight. 1 The human mind has the ability to believe anything is true. - JJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJB Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Looks like just a rock to me but I do like the petrified shrunken heart idea. That was good for my morning laugh. RB 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
