  6. Whilst walking on sheppey yesterday I found a good size crocodile vert in a phosphatic nodule. I'd love for it to be prepped professionally, I don't think me trying with hand tools and limited know how will end well. It is one of my first larger finds so I'd love for it to look as nice as possible. Are there any preparators or prep services you would recommend for sheppey fossils that may work with this? I understand this will not be the most aesthetic or easy prep job, as is often the case for sheppey finds, but it means alot to me. The nodule is a bit worn, but soft enough to scrape matrix with a finger nail in some areas, and hard in others.

    White River fm. Mini Claw

    Hi everyone! I found this claw while anthill hunting on the White River formation of northeastern Colorado. It's about 6 mm in length and 4 mm tall. Honestly I'm not certain that it's a fossil, but if it is I'm really excited to have found it. My first guess is that it's a small bird, but it could very well be mammalian or reptilian. Any input is appreciated.
  8. Hello all! I was looking through my bone fragments from the Cretaceous of Monmouth County NJ and came across two that I figured deserved one more shot on identification.. By any chance, does anyone know of what these may have belonged to?

    Montana fossils

    Hello, I recently acquired a small box of fossils from someone who had passed away recently. Inside were many fossils including those pictured. The only indicator of where they are from is that the box says "MONTANA". I can tell there are dromeosaur teeth, hadrosaur teeth, ankylosaur teeth and such. I know the man I got them from would routinely dig in the hell creek formation but I just wanted to make sure there wasn't anything obvious that I'm missing that would indicate that these fossils were collected elsewhere. My guess is that they are from the hell creek formation however. Any feedback is appreciated!!

    Moroccan bone

    Hello everyone! Would anyone be able to identify this bone from Morocco ? Thank you
  11. I’m not sure where this was found. Does anybody have an idea of what it might be?….
  12. Another one found in a box labeled fossils. No idea where it is from….

    Is this a fossil?

    This is another fossil I found in a box at my grandfather’s house labeled fossils. Not sure what it is or where it came from.

    can this be fossilized reptile embryo ?

    Hellow every body I found this stone during searching for agates on the beach . I can imagine head and tail . I want ask if this is just an imagination or it could be something . many thanks
  15. I live in NYC, and it was a real treat to see a street fair pop up on Broadway after all this covid stuff. Looked like the city was finally back to normal, including rock shop tents selling crystals and fossils off the sidewalk. I wish I'd taken a photo of the fossils, but this seller had four Claudiosaurus fossils that were obviously painted onto the matrix with a bit of dremel work to give them dimension. Price tag: a lot. Gotta be careful out there, friends. I've learned to be so wary from you guys, especially @Troodon.

    Fossil croc jaw?

    I bought this a long time ago. The seller only said that it came from Morocco and was in the Cretaceous period. I guess it might be a crocodile jaw?
  17. Hello, Just purchased some Permian matrix bags from Richards Spur, OK and the Texas Red Beds. I have a few items I'm wondering if anyone can help me ID. I do have some guesses for a few of them. Using a dime for scale. Red Beds Going to guess Eryops skull fragment on this one. I think these might be fragments of Orthacanthus spines. Partial vert? This one is so small I really can't capture any distinct detail in the photo. Most small teeth fragments in this matrix were the broken tips of Orthacanthus teeth. However this is much rounder (although I can make out at least one edge), has no serration as far as I can tell, and under a very bright light I can see extremely fine vertical ridges (striae?) down the length of the tooth. It is also colored differently. Not hoping for much on this guy but my best guess would be some sort of amphibian. This one I'm fairly confident is an Archeria "jaw"; I understand they would have had some kind of palate plate to help grasp/swallow prey? More info on that would be awesome. It definitely matches what I've seen on Google. Richards Spur, OK Am very interested in this one in particular. Some kind of rooted tooth, it has this strange acorn shape to it. Not seen anything like it elsewhere. Thanks for having a look and my apologies for the poor photos; all I've got is a magnifying glass. I think I need to buy a book so I can try and identify this stuff on my own!
  18. This bone has not been identified. I think it may be the leg bone of mosasaur or plesiosaur. Do you have any opinions? It comes from the Cretaceous period in Morocco
  19. Long time lurker but finally made an account here. Probably have talked to some of you on instagram though! This fossil was sold to me a while back when I first started collecting and I just wanted to make sure it is real. I was told by someone reliable that it's real, but was prepared using a cheap acid method. I would love to learn more about that too if that's the case. I attached pictures that I took with my iPhone and a moment macro 10x lens.

    Is this turtle rib bone?

    Hi everyone! When I put some cave breccia into liquid of acid acetic and water and this one came out. It long and slim seems doesn’t fit to any mammals that I know. When I used hammer to break the cave sediment, it broken into 2 part. This cave contains a lot of fossil from Pleistocene but mostly found are tooth of mammals. This is the first time I tried acid to preparation if there bone or microfossils. so please tell me if you know something about this bone. Thank for reading!
  21. I finally broke through today, and made some of my proudest finds ever... multiple times. I have some questions on a few ID's. When I compared these Ptychodus to the Ptychodus ID guide, they kind of reminded me of anonymus and mammilaris. I'm excited because everywhere else I've only ever found mortoni before. I did not find any mortoni here. In the same slab as a ptychodus, there's also a small tooth that's perhaps suggestive of Mosasaur - however, fish teeth from those like pachyrhizodus look deceptively mosasaurian to my inexperienced eye. Furthermore, it's small size could also indicate fish, but a mosasaur pterygoid tooth could be in the running this way still as well. One half is covered in matrix still, so I understand this complicates getting an ID Eagle Ford fm. Travis county, Texas Scale bar = 1 inch 1.) 2.) Ptychodus on the same slab 3.) Another Ptychodus (different slab) 4.) Fish tooth? Or chance of reptile? (scale bar= 1 inch)
  22. found it at the Big Brook Preserve, NJ. Look like a piece of skin or shield from reptile?
  23. On a couple of recent trips to the Whitby coast my daughter and I collected quite a few chunks of a large septarian nodule (or perhaps more than one nodule, though everything was collected in a small area) containing bones. Most of the pieces we found just contain ribs, but one piece contains a couple of larger bones. I’ve had a go at prepping the two best bits, is anyone able to suggest what the bones might have belonged to? Thanks for looking FullSizeRender.mov
