What is this?

[elliemae]

This is a friends find, it came from Indiana. It is black in color with a red circle, and is a little bit smaller than a baseball, and the stone changes temperature, the surface is very smooth with no tool marks.

what exactly do you mean by changes temperature?

 

[elliemae]

It sits in the same place, out of the sun and at times it will be cold to the touch and other times warmer.

Hard to say from pic,Is it cupped like a bowl?
if so it "may" be a discoidial,kinda looks like hemitite material but thats just a "guess".

 

[elliemae]

No, it's not cupped, it perfectlly round on the bottom, and the top slopes up to a rounded point and the red band in below the point. The red band goes completelly around it. thanks
