I don't believe it is a meteorite, but that doesn't mean anything. We simply can't tell from a photograph - no one can. Take it to a geologist at your local college. They can tell you if it is terrestrial.

I did take it to the University one of the professors looked at it then he called over the head of the department that looked at it under a 10X loop ask if they could keep it a few days and cut a slice of it and maybe etch it, so I will let y'all know what I find out thanks
I suggest to do nickel test, Dimethylglyoxime https://www.amazon.com/Nickel-Meteorite-Testing-Solution-Single/dp/B00K1J9FSI. Object looks like after cleaning or was found at dry environment. Looks promising. Meteorite iron always has a nickel. Next step grinding and etching of small window to see a structure.
Okay guys this was a test because there is so many people that sale meteorites out there this one was bought from a well respected and well known meteorite searcher that goes all over the world and he was even fooled by this rock, I got it then decided to cut it and have it ecthed when it was cut it just didn't look right brought it to the university had it tested 97.75% Iron 2.25% Carbon so to the point a lot of people on this forum say the only way you are going to know for sure if you have a Meteorite is to have it tested listen to them!
