It's a conversation piece, really. You can roll it but why.

My other "conversation piece" dice are a D12 from an old National Geographic game and a metal D20. I also have "long" dice I use sometimes, but at least those are functional. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_dice)

Oh, and a set of D6 that have a D6 inside of them.
