I have no idea what it is, but it's pretty cool. Does that hole at the top/bottom go all the way through? Maybe a really large bead? Looks like it has fingerprints on both sides? Where did you find it?

Also, welcome to the forums.

Thank you, it was found next to a lake in Florida NY next to my friends house. Yes it goes all the way through. Hole on the bottom is larger than the one on top.

Looks man made to me...where was it found? Just curious, a general location is what I was thinking....

Next to a lake in Florida NY, curious if anyone could tell how old it is.

Hi denden896
Welcome to the "Show"!

I belive this was made by Piddocks. A sort of mollusc which can burrow through stone.
Piddocks are a strange group of clam-like shellfish that burrow into soft rocks such as clay and sandstone. They begin this process after settling as larvae and slowly enlarge and deepen the burrow as they grow

Could be, but it wouldn't explain the fingerprints.

Is it just me? I see a mans face with hair, two eyes, a large moustache, and an open mouth like he's scared.
And NO, I haven't been drinking. 🍺
Is it made of clay?

Yes that’s what I see and it is clay.

Looks like a clay "shotgun" to me, used for smoking whacky-tobacky. If the hole in the 'face' goes through, that would be what they call a 'carburetor' for smoothing out the toke.

Its a surprised face made from clay! see the mustache and eyebrows? Does the hole go through? might be a bead or a dolls head

It does not go through it
