Another tabulate coral?

This looks similar to a tabulate coral, but the recessions are deeper than the others, and the stone almost has this shiny glint to it when held up to the light. Michigan/Indiana.

The deeper recessions will likely be on account of weathering, and the shiny glint is likely the calcite mineralization that replaced the coral during fossilization.
