caldigger Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 I was hoping it would be like "Where's Waldo" and we'd have to stare at the plant until we finally saw the penny. Looks like a healthy chunk of stone you probably carried some distance no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeargleSchmeargl Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 A foot wide by 2 foot long hash? Holy moly! What did you do, take the Tardis back to the Carboniferous, scoop a shovel of forest floor and come back? Really lacking on plant finds in my collection and could use a pointer for some sites. Tips? Every single fossil you see is a miracle set in stone, and should be treated as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
