🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Meteorite or plain old rock?

[Ramswin]

Hello.
Anybody out there know anything about rocks?
I acquired this rock in a box lot at an auction.
In some limited research, I believe it may be a meteorite.
It is not magnetic. It has been polished on one side. It weighs 6.7 ounces.
Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to give.

In my opinion not a meteorite. Looks like agate to me.

Plain old rock, albeit kinda pretty.
Looks like agate or Jasper to me.
If it's not magnetic, it's probably not a meteorite.

I think I found a meteorite. How can I tell for sure? | U.S. Geological Survey

Meteorites are fragments of rock or metal that fall to Earth from space. They are very rare, but many people find unusual rocks or pieces of metal and wonder if they might have found a meteorite. The USGS doesn't verify meteorites, but they have several properties that help distinguish them from...

Terry Soloman (and Bucket Lister in 2nd place) is correct, your find is a variety of Agate/Chalcedony. Yours is exceptionally beautiful, containing swirls of red Jasper. It has already been partially polished by a previous owner. If I owned in, I would take it to a gems-&-minerals "rockshop" to have it professionally slabbed (cut and highly polished) into a valuable cabochon, or whatever shape is appropriate to the size of original stone. Looks like a heart shape is possible to achieve. Depending on its size (which you unfortunately did not tell us), it could be mounted into a pendant frame. IMO, that would make a stunningly beautiful gift for someone you love.
