Dhart295 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Found this in my yard while digging. Is this a fossil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenmaster6 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Personally, I wouldn't take it if I were out hunting. Even if I knew I was in a good fossil area. Looks metamorphic, slim chance it could be coral but I doubt it. (coming from a guy who never hunts corals so wait for someone else ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FossilNerd Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 From what I can tell it is geological.

caldigger Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Curious what the "knee" in your tags is aiming at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Sorry, the texture is not that of bone. There is a slim chance that the small voids are where small fragments of shell or coral have dissolved away. One would need to find something more identifiable to assume it with any confidence though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
