Found this fossil in northeast Missouri. It is a slab of limestone.  Hope the other things found in the limestone will help identify it.Any ideas of what it is?

Hi, on your third last photos, this is a coral, on the first photos also.

These look very similar to the specimen you posted in the "Coral or Sponge?" thread you started yesterday

Looks like Hexagonaria sp. to me also. Nice specimen and pics on the last photos.
