Hi, Everyone. We found some more odd fossils yesterday and I decided to put a few out for identification. I added a shot of all of them together next to a centimeter ruler for size and comparison, the rest are individual items. One looks an awful lot like a pecan, but turned out to be a brown, striated stone. As always, I’m here to learn. Thanks. Jon

So I haven't posted for awhile. It is not due to me not going out. But less of a needful thing to post I guess. Anyhow. I figured I would toss some photos in here as I sit and wait, hahaha! Many of these are purchases of some very cool fossils! I hope you enjoy!

Found on the beach in my hometown (Charleston, SC) a few months ago-
DoubleD843 posted a topic in Fossil ID
Upon first glance I was thinking potentially trilobite related, however trilobite’s caudal region typically tapers down/smaller. Secondly- I noticed that the gray striations area of the fossil seemed to have once been completely intact circumferentially around the black porous portion. Needless to say- I am stumped!

Myliobatis Latidens(?); Eagle Ray- tooth plate? **bonus points** anyone able to ID the rock/mineral as well??
DoubleD843 posted a topic in Fossil ID
Initial thoughts after doing quite a bit of research- Eagle Ray tooth plate. Not 100% sure on this. As far as the specific rock/mineral containing the fossil….perhaps rose quartz? Totally a shot in the dark here. Would appreciate any feedback!

North Carolina Megalodon

Is this tooth legit ? I believe it is from North Carolina. I understand that it’s not in an amazing condition but is it real ? 0A1D9369-7446-41B6-9D01-AFEC8BDE6077.mov -

I found this rock hiking along side a small creek in northern Ohio in Erie county, only a few miles from Lake Erie. The brown piece is not magnetic. The rock seems to be limestone which this area has a lot. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks, Michael

Hello from Bear DE USA

A customer/friend of mine has bought a nice meg tooth and a bivalve from me for his boss for Christmas. He would like to get him a fossil book for a gift now too. He says one that covers marine and land would be good. Something to spark his imagination but also to learn from. He is looking to spend £30 to £40 on it, any pointers would be good please?

Hello! My name is Elaine Scott. I am a new member to the forum. Exploring the mountains in the high desert and rock/fossil hunting is a hobby of mine. I have a small collection of interesting items. Some of which I will ask for help identifying, I look forward to feedback! I see there's soo much content to explore on this site I'm pretty sure I'll spend the next several hours (and many more in days to come) scrolling through it all. I hope everyone has a great day! -

Hi, can someone recommend me some good fossil prepping tools on Amazon for under 200 even if it’s an air scribe with a compressor, total under 200. Please attach pictures if you can thank you:))))

I recently found this partial tooth in Florida and I really think it’s dire wolf. It looks exactly like the upper carnassial dire wolf teeth online. The only measurement i have is that the thickest part of the enamel from top to bottom is 17mm thick, not accounting for wear. Can you guys confirm/deny? Thanks! filtered-3F76D20A-199B-4B93-8957-ACB17287FC39.mp4

Is there anyone else on here who collects large shark vertebra? I am mainly interested in the ones from the USA. Although I have a bunch of ones from Morocco and all of them, or at least, most of them are over 4 inches.

My mom found this in the Black Forest in Germany when she was really little. This was over 60 years ago. Could it be a fossilized mushroom?
