Strange Pearl

Hello! I'm new to this site and was thinking that this place may have some answers to my question:

My father in law gave this pearl to my wife and she made it into a necklace. My father in law told me that he got this pearl when he was working at a restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. He found it in some type of pearl bearing clam or oyster... I have attatched some pics of it measured up to a ruler. I hope you guys can tell me what it is :) Thanks again!
