This is a nice specimen of this coral fossil.

It is flat on the back, so would make a very nice paperweight.

It has been polished all around. See scans.
This stone is hand polished. It is not "lacquered" like so many are.

The Petoskey stone is a fossil coral.

Condition - Very good. Nice "eyes" on this stone. Would make a very nice specimen to enjoy. There is a reflection on the stone from taking the picture. The one end is mud, but took a very good polish and we think adds to the character of the stone.

Measures - Approx. 3-1/8" x 2-5/8"x 5/8" thick.


Quality - Very good. Has very nice "eyes". Has some a small hole on back of stone.

REAL NICE HAND POLISHED STONE.

MICHIGAN'S STATE STONE.
