Txfossilmom Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Any input on this found in Ladonia. I'm thinking it is a plant based fossil but not sure on any specifics. My middle daughter found it in the river bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DPS Ammonite Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 @Txfossilmom, can you show us what the other sides look like? Baculites from the NSR have very ornate septa on the outside. I have never seen a longitudinal section and wonder if they are that simple. My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned.

Txfossilmom Posted March 18, 2018 Author Share Posted March 18, 2018 I'll see if I can get better pictures of it when I get home this picture came up in my memories on fb and was actually found a few years ago before I'd joined this forum but I've always wondered about it and some rocks with gold specs I'll post later too.
