If that's a US penny next to it for scale, it's not 'Huge" on the scale of quartz crystal specimens, but if it were demonstrably from, say, the Italian Alps or Germany, it could still be worth a bundle. It would be very much a collector's item though, not something easy to sell.
Marlow's right, it's not 'rust' as such, it's limonite - same idea, though, it's an iron-based overlay.
