Is this a meteorite?

[Timberwolf]

My step brother Keith found this.
It is pretty heavy, but a magnet does not stick to it.
It's hard to tell the size from these pics, but it is about 3" x 4".

He took it to a jeweler, and they said that it was was a meteorite.
We are not sure....what do you think?

If it is, where is the best place to sell it?
Thanks in advance,

Timberwolf

So far it looks like it is not a meteorite......it fails the magnet test.

Oh come on timberwolf, you know what that is! I use to get them every year in my Christmas stocking. A lump of coal! On alternate years I got a sack of switches! One year I got candy and a toy. I thought my parents didn't love me anymore! Wish it was a meteorite though, but the way it is layered makes me think it isn't. Keep at it , you'll get one some day. Monty

Thanks Monty,

I'm just a tired old wolf....I don't know if my ship will ever come in.
But if it does, I'm taking you and yours out for dinner!
