Very neat! I've never seen one like that before. Is that one of the colonial rugose corals?.....Mel

That is a really cool looking coral! I am thinking you should be able to cut some very nice cabs by centering on some of the orbs. Really awesome looking and I hope it holds up for you! Fran

Thanks , G`s ! Fran The material is solid agate for the most part , there is some pits in one small area near at the edge of the slab. Im keeping the endcut for a specimen, but offering the slab, i have another slab on my ebay now. I dont know of another of these in this preservation and color, i have seen reddish ones from Iowa and Western Illinois
