Going back in time some days.

On May 2 , I stumpled across this Echinocorys, flint fossils core, an medium size, in dark flint with its rock matrix including. An really incredible find, the shells pattern is still visible, on the half surface with no deep cracks.

The rock matrix in white and gray under it is firm intact.

I’m really happy to have found it.
