Peanut Rock

[hav2fish]

I posted a while back about a peanut shaped rock my friend found here in Central Texas. Finally talked him out of it or rather he got tired of hearing me talk about . Eight inch length, five inch diameter, wear in middle and on one end as if from grinding. It appears to be made out of flint. I am posting some pics of it as well as a pic of some other artifacts found in same area. I appreciate any thoughts on what it might be. Grinder. tool or just a big rock. Thanks in advance.

Interesting,
I found a rock several years ago that looks like a petified walnut.

Hi guys. Regarding the peanut shaped rock. My name is Damon and im from S.A. About a month ago i found two rocks that look almost identical to your rocks. I have got a meeting with a guy on Mon that will be able to help identify the rock. It is heavy, got flow line affect and is of rusty brown colour. I think it is either a meteor or lava rock. Have you had any help with yours yet?

They are more than likely Concretions. The one ohioriver hunter has is definitely a piece of Concretion.

Neat looking that's for sure.

I think you have a chert nodule there. I have one that is shaped just like it.

Pretty sure it's a net sinker. Was it near water?
