Don't hide it, divide it.
Puff Puff Pass!

Sorry but that's just a chunk of chert.

Maybe a little of both. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Some of my most coveted things are of little interest to others. So yes, it is amazing! Enjoy the heck out of it!

I am not seeing what others may be seeing.

Can anyone say what we are supposed to be seeing here other than a chunk of chert?

Not being rude just curios what about it is amazing to you ? It’s a cool looking rock but that’s all it is
So many different images make it amazing. What do u think of this one?20180117_113607.jpg20171206_150131.jpg20171206_150237.jpg20171206_145401.jpg20171206_145225_HDR.jpg20180117_113423.jpg

Looks like phophery. A granite igneous rock consisting of large-grained crystals such as feldspar or quartz.

What part of the country are you?

I see you said you are new at our great hobby and it is very common for "newbies" to see faces in stone and believe they are carved into the stone by man. We all do see the same faces as you do, at least I do, but years of experience tell me they are just freaks of nature and formed by natural erosion, not by man. They are cool, and even after 50+ years of collecting I too still bring some home from time to time to put around the flower gardens, but they are in no way, shape, or form an artifact of any kind. Hope this helps and remember to keep your eyes to the ground. You never know what that next step will bring.

Its like looking at clouds and seeing shapes in them the first one looks kind of like a bird head but like others have stated they are natural

I believe you would get better responses under geological forum where you can post under the rocks/gems forum. None of the rocks you posted are artifacts I think you will know for sure when you come across one and look forward to seeing pics when you do. Good luck

If your really wanting to find artifacts don't get discouraged you can learn a lot hear. And if you just really like rocks Well like others said there's a forum for that.
