hrguy54 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Had to clean yesterday's Flexy. Came out really nice. I rarely pick up rocks that have just parts of the trilobite but this one was an uncommon one. This face is nearly twice the size of that of the Flexy pictured above. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossiladdict Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Very cool! I like the face too. Fossils are simply one of the coolest things on earth--discovering them is just marvelous! Makes you all giddy inside! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Very cool! I like the face too. Now that you say it; it looks like a face from a Mayan temple!

hrguy54 Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 There's a photo of the "original" condition in From an Ohio Roadcut thread. It was ridiculously clean when I found it. It was laying speciman up when I found it on a ledge about 20 ft up the slope. A lot of people who search at roadcuts don't/can't/won't climb. I do/can/will/did. I've wonder if it laid there so long the weathering helped clean it (?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
