Crystal Crinoid calyx?

Recommended Posts

Hello all, I've come across something intriguing. A couple months back I found what looked like a geode. I've only recently got to splitting it, and got more than I bargained for I believe. This popped out of the dead center of the rock. I've given some of the other crystal lined peices to my brother, so I don't have all the peices of the outer. There are some brach bits in the rock, so there are fossil remains forsure. Are my eyes playing pareidolia on me, or does anyone else see what resembles to be a crinoid calyx? I'm happy alone to have the little brachiopodic bits druzied. All opinions are happily welcomed.

Pieces of rock. What I think might be a "calyx" is about 4cm in length. Found around Henry County, MO.

Sorry for all the pictures, I just want to give a clear shot of what you are looking at. Here's a rough calyx side by side to it. Rough calyx is also right at about 4cm.
