PolskiByk Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Found at Brownies Beach, on the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. Never seen anything like this. What is it?! The 30+ nodules are very hard material like enamel, and the base is bone material. Can someone please help identify this fossil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
