Hi Jill, i feel this one is a good candidate for a figure stone and showing working marks/deliberate flake removal, I also see two potential known figures and some other things that may indicate it as the genuine article.

There appears to be two faces incised into this rock.

Hi thanks for the validation I've been waiting for a website like this for the past 10 years.
But you guys missed one of the best faces on the rock. Its super tiny and its between the eyes the open mouth is the hole on the straight on faces' nose..
I just went out and picked up a handful a couple minutes ago I don't even pick up the big ones anymore. It's pitch-black out but they're easy to find by touch the little ones are made of rocks that aren't even found in Arizona and it feels really strange when you pick up something that was touched by somebody thousands of years ago. I have a page on Pinterest that has a couple hundred rocks i just found as well.
