Hello all
I was wondering if you could help me put a name to this peice that was in a box with some Trilobites.
The slate is aprox 35cm in length at it's farthest point's with the longest of 3 fossils measuring 23cm.
 A bit closer picture.

Tabfish, This looks like a Graptolite, e.g. Monograptus. AndyS |

Thanks AndyS for the ID - is it worth keeping or can you get bigger/better one's?

I'm no expert on graptolites but 23cm sounds quite big if it is one...
Thanks Dave
