Coco Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Probably a coral. Wait for the specialists.

Opabinia Blues Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Would agree that this looks like a section of a horn coral (Rugosa). 1 “The worse the country, the more tortured it is by water and wind, the more broken and carved, the more it attracts fossil hunters, who depend on the planet to open itself to us. We can only scratch away at what natural forces have brought to the surface.” - Jack Horner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Kmiecik Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Looks like a horn coral to me as well. Nice one too! That would look really good polished. 1 Mark. Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsaacTheFossilMan Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Definitely a rugose coral, a large one at that! Do you have a more precise identification on the place you found it? A locality would assist in a species identification. 1 ~ Isaac; www.isaactfm.com "Don't move! He can't see us if we don't move!" - Alan Grant Come to the spring that is The Fossil Forum, where the stream of warmth and knowledge never runs dry.
