I went to Mineral Wells fossil park a few months back and I have a couple of finds that I'm unsure of. This is one of those finds. Is it a piece of a trilo or something else? Thank you.

It looks like the interior of a brachiopod. What does the other side look like?

My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned.

Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them!
