That doesn't look like a meteorite and it certainly would not be a Leonid.  It is too weathered.  As well, Leonids are tiny particles and burn up in the Earth's atmosphere.

                     Steve Dunklee has invited you to view 2 photos on Yahoo! Photos. 
                           
                                 
                           
                           
                     On nov 18 at 11:15 pm Rebecca moore of Spring mill Arkansas was returning home from work when she observed a lime greem meteorite fall and explode as a bolide directly in front of her. She was at the top of a hill facing northwest next to a bluff that limits a view of the sky to a few degrees. At the same time Gary Sudol of Mt Pleasant arkansas ras removing his briefcase from his car two miles south of 
                      Rebecca and facing nearly north and observed the same fall saying it looked as if it fell right behind the hill behind the office. This narrowed rhe search area to around two miles away covering an area of around 2000 square feet. This morning being the first time I could search in daylight I recovered several small stones which test positive for nickel and stick to a magnet. The largest weighs 26 grams and is in the photos
                      Best regards
                      Steve
