The material, is it granite? Are there peck marks visible on it anywhere? What about polish? Is there obvious use polish or polish from finishing?

I've never held it and don't know the material. It looks like greenstone to me and I would think the backside would almost have to be polished to be that perfect.

May need to rule out natural concretion first? Certainly could be man made, but I would want to rule out concretion at least. Probably not, but just a thought....

Okay, here is one I found years ago and for years thought it was a Cone, but it's not. It is a natural Concretion that has split in two and then was polished by the weather and erosion. I think that one may be similar but with more polish and maybe from water since it so much smoother.
