Can anyone tell me what this is? It was found on East Beach on Galveston Island in Galveston, Texas. I find lots of shark teeth on this beach, but have no idea what this could be. *last two pics are just for size reference.

I've had this for quite some time and it's always been interesting to me. But I am not sure if it's a Fossil or what it is? It has a different texture. It's about 2 inches long and 1/2 inch wide.

This needs to be cleaned up a bit I think, but I found this cool fossil on Friday afternoon! Northeast Alabama, US. Pottsville Formation. I still don't have any good reference books (plan to order this week), but with my internet digging it looked like this could possibly be a spore cone from one of the clubmosses (like Lepidodendron sp.)? Any help/guidance is much appreciated!

Found this fossil in a creek during my last trip my guess is that its a whale tooth or some kind of tooth. But I was wondering if anyone knows what it is? Along with possibly how old it could be? I found it on a creek near the peace river.

Hello Everyone, I acquired the fossils years ago through an estate sale. The original owner had poorly packed them in a cardboard box and some pieces were broken. They have been repacked very carefully since I found the damage and repacked them 20+ years ago. I am just taking the time to study them and trying to ID as many as possible. I appreciate and am thankful for any help! The original owner was an amateur archy sometime in the 1920s - 1930s. The only information available was these were found "Out West". The last member of the family was elderly and she had been suffering from Alzheimer's for years. Scant info I realize but it is all I have. First Fossil:

New guy from Louisiana, militaria collector who also has a interest in very old dead things
ShibaLegend posted a topic in Member Introductions
Name's Shiba. I've been into fossils for a fairly long time now, but if you know Louisiana, you'll know that fossils here are a bit few and far between. However I like to think i've gotten a fairly respectable collection with some decent finds. Nothing scientifically important, but nice to have knowing how rare interesting fossils are to find. You guys in Texas and Florida sure are lucky haha. Because I don't have much to find I can't say I will be a frequent poster, but ill post what I can dig up every here and there. Im also a big militaria collector, something I also love and enjoy. Really old history is great, but learning about what happened 20 years before your parents were born is also very rewarding for me. Anyways, thanks for letting me on board! -

Provenance is a problem.. sample is a cobble of late Wisconsin glacial origin, derived from a Lake Ontario shoreline drumlin environment. It most likely originated in the drumlin sediments. Existing studies place the majority of the sedimentary till clast sources as locally derived late Ordovician, early Silurian mud/silt/sandstones and limestones (minor) deposited in an epicontinental sea environment.. via macrostrat, undifferentiated Medina Group and Queenston Formation. Oswego Sandstone is also a contributor to area till. And there are plenty of Canada and Adirondack gneiss clasts and others to found indicating transport from these areas. Stone is siliclastic. Thinking paralitic clastic marginal marine, perhaps tidal, based on rip up clasts at bottom, heterolithic bedding in the center area, cut chanel in L stone (center, upper third). Polished section on right. Scale in mm. What made the burrow and bioturbation above it? I welcome your input.
