I believe this to Mesoamerican.. Anyone educated in Mesoamerican studies please reach out.. In the first picture there's 4 symbols, a fish on the bottom on the right a bird, to the left I believe it to be a monkey and on the top a person.. picture #2 a depiction of a kokopelli.. I know this community this group in particular can be some ball busters and you can believe this or not.. If your going to be ignorant and not helpful then please don't post... Also I did an acid test on this and I got no reaction till 18k was used.. Not sure what that means but hopefully I'll find out soon.. And the pictures don't due this justice as in person things are more clear..

Thank you for the clarification.. My mind was wondering off to something else 😆
 

Pictures are hard to read.
What are the actual dimensions and weight?
 

How was the acid test done also?
 

I hate to be that guy but in regards to markings looks like just pitting. Now the circular feature on it is interesting. Beyond that looks like some sort of melted metal. But who knows
 

What you are seeing is caused by pareidolia, it is your imagination trying to make recognizable images out of random shapes.


 

I'd like to know what the metal composition is. The round/square-ish shape intrigues me too. Let us know if you figure metal out. Thanks.
