Creek Find - Johnston County NC

I found this on my last trip into the creek. Unlike the quartz in the area, this stone was glossier and cleaner. So I took a chance and grabbed it. Here it is from rough through polish. Any ideas what to label this one?

Thanks

Good job, April, Thanks for the pictures!
There are so many different types of quartz formations that after being water worn from rolling around in creeks it can hard to say, Wink,
that being said,  Smiley, it looks like a crystalline quartz. Either it was once a crystal or came from a vein of crystalline quartz.
Nice inclusions! Well Done!
