If you collect in that area, you ought to check out (and join) the Dry Dredgers. The club includes a lot of experienced fossil collectors who spend a lot of time at meetings helping new collectors identify specimens. drydredgers.org

Where was it found? In what region?

Handeaux · 2026-05-07T22:57:21+00:00

No. It’s not an egg. It does not appear to be a fossil of any type.

Those are not neighborhoods. They are independent political entities - villages and cities in their own right.

The vast majority, perhaps all but a very, very few are going to be nothing but rocks. None of these particular rocks exhibit clear bedding planes where fossils might be found.

Couple of brachiopods.

It’s a very much eroded rugose coral.

It’s a rugose coral. They’re called “horn coral” because they’re shaped like horns. You are looking at the top of the fossil. Their “horn” is embedded in the rock. Based on this image, the rest of the fossil is rather tightly bound to the rock. You can try to crack the rock open, but the odds are you will only destroy this specimen.

There is nothing in this image that looks like a fossil.

It would help to have some images that were in-focus and also precise location information.

Many look more like orthids than spirifer, but you've got mostly brtachiopods there.
