Is this a hammerstone?

I found this when I was digging a slit trench. When I picked it up, it felt very comfortable in my right hand, and yes, I have used it a few times to drive a nail. It works as a hammer.

Now, I realize that this could have been shaped via natural processes, and just because it seems to fit does not necessarily imply it was custom made for me in particular,but I am human and have human hands and it seems to fit well in a human hand, so perhaps it's not a natural shape but an artifact.

Am I wrong?

Only one picture posted and it is blurry when blown up, nothing visible in blurry picture posted says artifact, maybe better pictures will say something different.

Can’t tell from the pic, look for some battering around the edges and on working faces. Also consider the type of stone, for example if it’s a soft sandstone probably not a hammer stone
