Found this orange egg at a local park.
I am thinking it might be Orange Calcite or Orange Aventurine, but I am not 100% sure.
Anyone know what it is? image.jpg image.jpg

I have one, but not orange(!!). It came from Mexico, some time back in the early 80's. I know they're still making and selling rock eggs, as well as most anything else that sells.

Don't know how to tell if it's old or not.

it is easily understand by scratch test calcite or not............as far as i see look like not calcite.......... my thought tumbled chalcedony or might be moganite.......... if your knife doesnt scratch that.......... its probably what i say...... second picture its looks like fibrous texture.......... if iam true it is moganite..goodluck..
