🔎 UNIDENTIFIED I found this stone ball while I was digging a quarter signal

[Mdpartner]

I found the quarter and the stone ball does not display on my detector so there is no metal in it. The ball feels like sandstone to the touch. Just like it will rub off but it doesn't.

Wifey took it to the Antiques Roadshow in OKC. They said it was possibly an American Indian manufactured ball for a game. Value $100

What do you think?
