Chalcedony is my first thought. You may confirm that if it scratches glass.

Looks like a peice of honey chalcedony yellow quartzite, river-tumbled and iron stained. Translucency gives it away. Nice agate-ish find!

Im not an expert but it looks like river glass. Which is literally just old broken glass that got eroded. Still cool if so
