    Kick around whilst searching for arrowheads that is.
    This is some sort of geode I think. Has a bunch of quartz crystals inside.
    As can be seen by the ruler it is about 5" long. It is a bit interesting as it has two sections. One is the round section which is mostly solid and a hollow section that shows some of the quartz formations.

      We had areas where they were scattered over fields. As kids, we couldn't afford to have more than a few cut to expose the crystals, so just left them .

      Don't remember finding any arrowheads in those fields but they weren't plowed either.

      Thank you very much valentino97. Actually I got it from people who sell rocks up here on the mountain. They only sell from the garage on holiday weekends.
