About 3.5" across and 2" high.

Found in Masonic Park, Fillmore County, Minnesota. Ordovician. Probably Galena Formation.

It looks like a "honey bun" to me! LOL I've never seen anything like it.

Ideas?

Thanks for looking!

Bev :)

Looks very much like the gastropod Holopea pyrene

which Caleb posted ... from the same formation in Minnesota.

That is Sweeeet. :fistbump:
