No, it is pretty solid. I am 100 percent sure it is a stone, sorry my images are not clear.
How hard is petrified wood? Very hard: petrified wood rates between 7 and 8 on Mohs Hardness Scale, with talc at 1 and diamonds at 10.

Jaspers, Agates and Quartzes all have a hardness of approximately 7 to 7 1/2

Okay, I forgot to mention one other important detail, the top and bottom side of the stone is completely flat and parallel to each other.

Sorry, I thought you were saying my specimen was some kind of ordinary wood.
