bone digger Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 A vert for sure, a little eroded, could be champs like grampa dino said, never seen one shaped quite like that before! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenoakee Posted September 24, 2008 Author Share Posted September 24, 2008 yes that is the kind of vert i mean ....but i'm pretty sure this is a trace fossil of one (an imprint of the original bone in some sort of deposit i.e. mud maybe even poop!! ...coprolite)but it could be a long shot!
