rmalesko24 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Found near Lake Cumberland, Somerset, KY. Approximately 2 inches in size. White circular pods are very fragile and can easily be popped out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmalesko24 Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 Thank you. I have so many different items I need help identifying, I'm so excited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brett Breakin' Rocks Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Like Peat said those circular pods that pop out are the teeth .. I'm assuming yours is possibly modern. Here is an example of a fossilized or mineralized distant cousin. Cheers, Brett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
