Looks like a Magnolia cone.

I don't think so. It's similair but not the same.

It looks like the seed pod from a cycad. Cardboard palm, coontie, (not sago).

That was my thought. I wasn't there when it was found, My friends brought it back.

Be careful with the seeds of any of the cycads. They can be deadly toxic if ingested by a child or pet.

Thanks...I did not know that
