Kane Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Where was this found? More images (on a flat surface, more angles, and something like a ruler to indicate scale) will help provide the necessary context to attempt an identification. ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ET-REX Posted September 25, 2018 Author Share Posted September 25, 2018 I found it in some pea rock in northwestern Iowa. It just looks unusual to me. In the same pea rock I often find amber, petrified wood, coral, and small aquatic fossils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monica Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 First of all, welcome to the forum! Secondly, could it perhaps be a platycerid gastropod facing inwards, towards the centre of the rock? It kind of reminds me of one I found at Hungry Hollow this past summer: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coco Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Hi, Please dont use a coin as a scale. Only americans know its size ! The best way is a real scale... Or size in text.

Ludwigia Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Sorry, but the images are still too fuzzy to even allow a good guess. Is this commercial pea rock from a retailer's or did you find it in a driveway or a gravel pit? Greetings from the Lake of Constance.
