I am not sure where this came from, if I found it in the field behind me or it just popped up. I almost threw it in a junk rock pile but I looked at it first. I live in West Central Ohio and I have found many fossils butnever like this. Any ideas where to get information on it? Thanks in advance for any help. Balddawg

It is hard to tell from the image due to bluriness. Since it is from OH the I would lean to coral. However, if the radiating ridges (or what appears to be radiating ridges) are ridges and not an artifact of the coral cell structure then it could be a Ptycodont tooth. This is where a good close up clear image is worth its weight in gold. If what appears to be ridges are actually flat then it is coral. If it has radiating ridges like in the image attached it could be a tooth. This image is a screen shot from the Oceans of Kansas web site.
