Found several fossils near Hulbert, Oklahoma (Cherokee Co.) in late June of 2018. I don't know anything about fossil identification, but I hope to label them with some identification. They were on exposed rocks, probably mississippian  or pennsylvanian according to a map I saw. Sorry that the photos aren't too good, but a phone camera was all I had.

1 is a mold of the calyx of a solitary rugose coral (horn coral).  2 is a mold of a couple of productid brachiopods.  3 is a mold of a part of a spiriferid (most likely) brachiopod, where the two valves meet.

4 - Rugose coral

5 Fenestrate bryozoan.

6, 7, 8, all look like bivalves to me.

 Hello Eric, welcome from sunny Atlanta, 'twixt the mountains and the sea.  GMS, RTH, and TFF are all waiting for you so come up with a game name and jump in the pool.
