Incredible Find

Unfortunately it isn't mine, but this was found by a co-worker, and sometimes relic-hunting buddy in Loudoun County Virginia. It is absolutely flawless, and smooth as can be. This guy has un uncanny eye for arrowheads, and other artifacts, and has plucked over 1,000 of them from the dirt. The object in the picture is a Quarter for size reference. Anyone here have an estimate of the age of this piece, and/or know why the hole is in it ?

I can't imagine how ancients could drill a hole in rock.
Looks like a scraper though.
