I can tell you with absolute certainty that that is a coral.

In all seriousness. I don't think its a lord.
Looks more echinata to my untrained eye.
 
Micromussa sp., formerly Acanthstrea

not echinata, no concentric wrinkles, also note coenosarc forming lip over theca, characteristic of Micromussa

Bowerbanki? Beautiful coral.
not bowerbanki, note coenosarc lip as mentioned above

Well I am glad a clearly trained eye tuned in! Thanks!
