Fossil Pecan or Acorn?


At first glance, this appears to be a fossilized pecan or acorn. I found it in a dry river bottom about 30 feet down from the top of the river bank. The banks are heavy with oaks, pecans and walnuts, so it's feasible and if so, a rare find. On the other side, barely viewable in this pic, seems to be part of a shell still attached.
