How sweet it is to be seen by you!

 

My youngest decided to get thrifty with his BOMAD spending, despite repeated “requests to do otherwise” (BOMAD = Bank of Mom and Dad) :oyh:

 

Nonetheless, I think this is a VAST improvement visually.  Sorry for the overenthusiasm?  NAH!

Tabulate coral. Possibly favositid, but I think there is a similar one that isn't quite as strict about it's geometry.

Pleurodictyum is the one I was looking for.

I have to disagree with pleurodictyum.  We have picked up hundreds of them in NY and they have a very distinct shape and features.  They are all pretty round and the backs usually lack the coral pattern.  When you are lucky you find one that has a snail impression on the back, which is what they often grew on.  They are usually fairly small in size as well.  Here is a pic of the front and back of one of ours.

That's an excellent example of tabulate coral with a nice color to match. Nice find!

Each dot is 50,000,000 years:
