Wrangellian Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Looks like coral to me, but it's so water-worn you might not get a very precise ID. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost word-for-word... Great minds think alike Pambosk, did you find it on the beach? Maybe the next step is to see if you can find an exposure of this formation that is not wave-worn, now that you know it is fossiliferous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
