Is this a nice stone?

I think so, but what do u think? I found it in the forest during hunting, it´s about 2 fists big and not "manipulated" in any way (I only rinsed it). What should I do with it, as far as presentation goes? It´s almost round by the way...

Don't cut that stone, since you really don't need to.
