Hi, first post, what is it?

[Pauly78]

Hello, I found this rock in my backyard a few years ago while having a new foundation put in. I always wondered what it was and if it was at all special? Can anyone tell me what this is? Thank you!

A ruler or something for scale would be great help. Looks like a real neat stone to me, almost like a polished tumbled piece of smokey quartz.

Thanks. A few more with different lighting and a ruler.

Goldie has it, agate. Agate is a micro crystalline quartz that is also known as chalcedony and is translucent. You piece does look like it has been machine tumbled to polish it.

1st - I noticed this was your very first post - so, Welcome Aboard Pauly78! You didn't list your state (or country) in your profile. So, you might consider jumping over to Sub-Forum: Select Your Area.... for information (i.e., clubs, hunts, finds, legends, maps, etc.) directly related to your state (or country).

2nd - I moved ya from TODAY'S FINDS! over to ROCKS/GEMS for more exposure.

Welcome. It kinda favors melted glass. I wonder if theres an old burn pile near by.
