Frog129 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I can't positively identify this. It would appear to be Sigillaria from the pictures I have pulled up but the backside looks like pine bark. It is very lightweight. Last pic is the backside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowboy Paleontologist Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I have ~0 experience with such fossils, but as per a quick internet search, Sigillaria looks like a very good bet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossildude19 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Welcome to the Forum. It looks like it may have been decorticated, or otherwise worn away. The leaf scars are faint, but they are there. Neat find. Regards, Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."
