An Abba turd?

I’ve seen paperweights with all kinds of stuff in them created as souvenirs… including things like pieces of turf from football pitches, but usually they also include something else that identifies the occasion or nature of the souvenir.

I wonder if this might perhaps be a ‘Rose of Jericho’ souvenir which has religious significance as the “Resurrection Plant”. It’s a small tumbleweed-type plant that compacts into a ball in dry conditions and I have seen them in paperweights… both as Anastatica hierouchuntica (true Rose of Jericho) and as Selaginella lepidophylla (false Rose of Jericho).

Asbestos?

It's difficult to get a sense of the material inside. Metal? Organic?

It looks like a horse turd that was growing some of the grass it ate and someone thought it would be a cool paperweight. AKA horse apple or road apples. Google and look at pics to see if you agree I know a girl who put pipe cleaners, feathers and googley eyes on horse turds and sold them as turd birds and made $5,000.00 one summer in our tourist trap town.

Ok. I've changed my mind. It's either Vibranium Or Unobtainium.
