Coeymans, as in Lower Devonian? What is the size of your object?

It reminds me of the messed-up Phacops molt casts I used to find at a site in VA, but a little larger.

Where did you find it? The negative cast reminds me more of the New Scotland. I have some Coeymans material including a few good orthoconic cephalopods. This could be a rather scrappy one. There are some slightly younger (Tristates Group-Onondaga) trilobites that were big enough to leave something like that but the stuff I know from the Coeyman was smaller.

Oh and I never posted anything quite like that.

Erose sorry about that corrected my posting ...As for where I found it the problem is that the boulder it came from was a glacial eratic ...In an area that does not hold either of those materials
