Petoskey Stone is a type of hexagonaria fossil that dates to around 350 million years ago, and were originally a type of coral. 

These rocks are unusual as many pieces of this stone clearly show the characteristic six sided shape or pattern of the original coral.

The well known white six sided shape only becomes visible when the stone is wet, or is tumbled and polished.

These stones were formed by glaciers, when ice movement sheared off sections of the bedrock. Over time this action smoothed loose pieces and created the pebbles or stones.
