indominus rex Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 May we have better images of the fossil? Does look like a coral to me. 2 Life started in the ocean. And so did my interest in fossils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeargleSchmeargl Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 2nd indominus. Looks coral, but better image quality would help quite a bit as well. Other angles? Perhaps even some prep to reveal more? 2 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...

Rockwood Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 The size would be near the maximum I think. That would qualify it as rare in some respect but they could be common in some formations. Here is a fairly large one from Devonian Maine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunterc123 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Definately rugose coral. Not very rare, not worth much. I find tons of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
