Well... it could, but it could also be one of any of a number of much more common Earth rocks. The message needs to be repeated again that there's no way an achondrite meteorite can be identified from pictures alone. It doesn't have any obvious meteoritic features such as a fusion crust.

i understand but it does have the typical cracks that NWA meteorite also have and it is a weathered stone so fusion crust wil be weathered away. But do you see that there is a brown outside and in some places that has broken away and shows a white interiour. Last photo second post.

Yes, but neither the cracks, nor the darker exterior are diagnostic features for meteorites versus terrestrial rocks,
