What is it?

I found this in a dry creek bed in southeast Missouri.

Looks like a rock to me…

It has two little round knobs that are fossils, I just don’t know what kind. I have never found anything like it before, and I’ve been hunting this creek for years. I’m thinking crinoid fossils, but am not completely for sure. I’m going to send a picture of it to a university professor in order to see what he thinks. I have a masters degree and have studied for years, but still don’t know what this is.

You’ve just answered your own question then…😁
