It was my father’s and obviously the number is out of service. I’d like to mount it in a box with my megalodon teeth, but I really want to know what it came from. Any ideas?
Found this while collecting rocks north of the San Antonio area and found it interesting. Just old cracked mud imprint or (on the extreme long shot) skin imprint from some ancient reptile?
Any info is welcomed!

Has long straight lines on all sides and is oval in shape. Found in a small stream in Kentucky.
