Mortality hash plate

[EscarpmentMary]

Just found today in my back yard. First daylight in 430 million years. It was found about two metres down. We are working on a house project. I just washed it off in the kitchen sink. My question is what would you do next? I have been thinking about prep work in general, I like it, should I just enjoy it as it is?

looks good, and natural, as is.  Fun Find.

Thank you, yes it is! The great thing is, my reading and The Fossil Forum has given me the knowledge to understand what it is and how it got here!

Most hash plates like this one are best as is. They tell fantastic stories.

Yup. 

I love hash plates and think they're usually best left as they are. 

Nice  one.

That is a nice backyard find. Now your yard is going to look like Swiss cheese.
