Unusual bone

[CDavison]

Found this petrified bone that is really smooth and has perfect thickness wondering if it might be done for a pendent or something else?

No. It's the bone out of a round steak or ham slice.

Round or ham steak as mentioned , or a chuck steak maybe.

The round bones cut in slices can (and some have) be used to join leather straps. Probably other uses too. Saw a pair on a shooting bag for blackpowder.

Had a powder horn with a hambone tie on the strap.

Appears to have been sliced on a mechanical meat saw, so it's not very old.
