This one is storm battered, broken brachiopods but what I'm curious about is the other half of this hash plate.  Running down the center is a ridge that is part of the tongue shaped fossil, hope you can see it okay in the photos.  Thanks in advance!

Looks like a strophomenid brachiopod, and the imprint of a rugose coral next to it.

Maybe Rafinesquina sp. on the brachiopod?

Thank you!  I'll keep pecking away at it with my handy dandy pin vise and see what more is revealed.  LOL!!
