Jess Z Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Hi All! I'm new here, I found this blog while researching a little find of mine. I posted the pictures below. I found this cute little guy while beach glass picking at walnut beach on Lake Erie. As soon as I saw it I was pretty sure it was a fossil but I have no idea what. Thats why I'm here! I want to know what it is that I found. I appreciate any help from you guys! Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arizona Chris Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 A coral cup rounded by wave action on the beach so its now round? ??

Fossildude19 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Welcome to the Forum. To me, this looks like a water worn internal cast of a Rugose, or "Horn Coral."

Raggedy Man Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Looks like some of the sponges I pull from the Waldron shale, but as Tim pointed out it does look like a horn coral worn by water ...I'm back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TqB Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I agree it's a worn down rugose coral. The second photo seems to show some beekite rings on the right so it's probably silicified. 3 Tarquin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 looks like a stub of worn horn coral to me also 1 "Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence"_ Carl Sagen No trees were killed in this posting......however, many innocent electrons were diverted from where they originally intended to go.

Herb Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 could possibly be a worn Silurian sponge also 2 "Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence"_ Carl Sagen No trees were killed in this posting......however, many innocent electrons were diverted from where they originally intended to go.

Herb Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 or possibly a worn Silurian button coral Hadrophyllum sp.? 1 "Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence"_ Carl Sagen No trees were killed in this posting......however, many innocent electrons were diverted from where they originally intended to go.
