mnewman0945 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Hello all! Thanks again for all of the great info on my Previous fossil! I AM ASTONISHED by how old my coral is! I have another fossil (hopefully) I am somewhat weary about.. its a small piece but to me I believe its a piece of petrified wood. Your thoughts? Once again I am eager to see if I am able to see how old this little guy is. You guys ROCK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Looks like a bit of a solitary Rugose, ... or "Horn" coral. Again, probably Devonian, or Silurian.

The ring around the outside most likely would have been composed of small squareish shapes originally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I do have a number of geodized specimens I found in Michigan. Here's one: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
