Big Orthocone 1

For you cephalopod guys. Found this portion of a REALLY large orthocone cephalopod while out this morning poking around the lower Elgin member, Maquoketa formation in Fayette County Iowa. Even partially deflated this section had a circumference of 17"

17", is it 17x2 cm = 34 cm ? It is awesome, is it on this that you found the trilobite ?

About 43 cm. Yes, this is the one that had the trilobite embedded.
