Coral. I agree with Kray
Kray and Terry are likely correct, based on appearance. I have, however, seen quartz specimens that have some similarities.
If you want to learn how to identify meteorites, pick up a few guidebooks. I carry several dog eared guides on different things I may encounter when I am in the field away from home.
Time for more coffee.
