for lack of any more creative thought on what, if anything, this might have served:

in-hand: View attachment 1875030
front: View attachment 1875031
back: View attachment 1875032
top: View attachment 1875033
bottom (striking face): View attachment 1875034
groove profile: View attachment 1875035

anyone else see any possibly purposeful intent behind the shape of this stone?

An apparently common natural feature in your area based on the similar looking stones in the background of the photo? Are they all found in a relatively small geological area?
