This is a wild guess, but I'm going to say walnut.
Jog my memory a bit - what size was the piece? I'll check to see if I have any more like that in my stash.

Walnut varies in density.
This looks like black walnut.
Was it stained or just clear coat?? Do you have any unstained or plain. Can you turn it over??

It was a 1X6 about 10" long
