I have always wondered about these rocks. The big one is shaped to fit your palm nice with a notch in it. The round rock with the hole in it, has chisel tollong marks on it, it is a airy and light rock though. The watch is in the picture for size comparison.

Nothing in these pictures jumps out and says artifact to me, but pictures often don't do rocks justice.

From the photo, they appear to be natural. The "round rock with a hole" looks like a bone that a rodent has gnawed on. Was the large limestone piece found in a plowed field? I ask, because agricultural implement strikes are often mistaken for intentional abo marks.

If the small oval one is a fossil, that would make my day! I would have brought them home.

Nothing but rocks and a rodent chewed bone.
Keep looking (in areas with chipped flint.)
Good Luck

you clearly say that the round one is rock, and not a chewed on bone. I believe you. Don't be discouraged. I can't produce a sheepskin, but i do come with a lifetime of experience in collecting rocks and items which are clearly NOT just rocks -- i'd say that the larger item does make me say "hmm" warrants more looking into. I have no clue about the other things.
