  1. Hello everyone, this is my first post so I hope I'm doing this properly. Some months ago I was visiting family in Ohio and we went fossil hunting, which is a popular activity there. Here are the details: Location found: Lebanon, Ohio (in a small riverbed) Dimensions: Height: 3.8cm Width: 2.6cm I don't have a scale to weigh it, but it is heavy the way a stone of its size would be. (I know that's a terrible way to describe the weight but I can't think of what to compare it to) It also passed the "tongue test" which I read about during my research about fossil identification. At first I thought perhaps it was a mastodon tusk segment. I read online ice age era fossils have been found in the area I was at due to it being glaciated. Thank you all so much for reading and for helping. I am completely inexperienced and uneducated in paleontology, but I am very interested. Cheers!

    Hello

    Hello, I'm Jackson from Arkansas, and I'm an avid fossil hunter. I live on carboniferous exposed strata so that is mostly what I find. I will occasionally visit Eastern AR to Eocene strata. Right now I'm very interested in microfossils and the precambrian. I actually have a trip planned in a few weeks to go to NC to search the slate belt for precambrian fossils. I also am attempting to dissolve carbonate rock of Ordovician age to extract conodont elements. My main hobbies are wildlife conservation, fossils, shell collecting and general outdoor stuff!
  5. I found this today while out side on a river bed. The part i found it at is usually not seen & covered by water but the river is unusually dry so i found it on an exposed part. I’ve tried reverse image search & using a rock identifier but can’t find anything that looks similar besides other kinds of fossils. I’m really interested in learning what it is!!! i live in southern minnesota.
  6. Hi All! I'm currently saving up to pursue my PhD in Archaeology (focus on pre-colonial N. America, Pre-Bronze Age Aegean, and Human Evolution) and am an avid rock and fossil collector! Living in NYC, I mostly hunt with my partner in NJ, but am originally from the California coast and often make trips back to the golden coast. Very interested in both collectible and "observation only" in-situ finds. Long-time lurker of the forum, but finally decided to join in on the discussions! Thanks everyone!
  7. I found this tooth on a dredge island in georgia it’s probably the biggest piece of megalodon tooth ive ever found and was wondering if theres any experts that could say how big the tooth was whole. Ive done some speculating with a drawing but wanted other opinions.

    Ordovician ID help

    Hello. New member here. Would appreciate some help with an ID, please. Found in Williamson County, Tennessee, USA. Rock formation is Nashville Group (Ordovician). Exposed fossil length is about 1/4" or 6mm. Thank you!
  12. I’m trying to get better at identification so I labeled the pieces with what I think they are but some I can’t figure out. I would love some guidance if anyone has any input! Thanks Fernandina Beach Amelia Island Florida USA

    Bivalve fossil or something more recent?

    I was at Atwater Beach at Shorewood, WI for a couple of hours today because a cursory online search showed that it’s a place where people have supposedly found Silurian Reef fossils. I did not find anything of note except this rock that looks like a bunch of clams fell on wet concrete. I’m only second-guessing myself because the beach is littered with tiny mussel shells, as well, and I know it would not that that long under the right conditions for bivalve shells and sediment to become squished together into one mass. I have found some rocks that definitely looked like that. But, this one is much heavier and I only see what looks like indentations, not the shells themselves. Not to mention, the patterns on the ridges do not look like those of the native mussel shells that litter the beach. The second picture is the back of the thing.

    Florida porpoise teeth ID

    These are some dophin like teeth ive found and just wondering if anyone of them was something different like a bear or something completely different? All of these teeth except one were found in florida. Most of them in the peace river one of them in gainesville and the other in georgia. The second to last photo was the one from gainesville and the last photo is the one from georgia.
  15. Hello everyone, I'm quite new here but it was recommended I come to this site from another site. I've never fossil hunted before, but I know a fair amount about paleontology due to a personal interest in the topic. I would like to learn fossil hunting, but with a group of people who are knowledgeable about the matter. I'm wondering if anyone knows of groups that do fossil hunting in the New York or Philadelphia area?

    Another one.....

    Found somewhere legal to hunt fossils between Colorado and Nevada. No idea what this thing is.
  17. Hi y'all, Was gifted this piece randomly, which was bought at an antique style store. The store made no claims to it being authentic, but I'm wondering if there's a possibility it is? I admit I know literally nothing about fossils or fossil identification, I just used Google lens to see if it would pull up an exact copy as a quick first test. It didn't pull up this exact piece, but did pull up a previous discussion on this forum where somebody else was trying to determine if their fossil fish was real and it was, although it was painted. Is that the case here as well, or is this just a fun replica? Thank you all so much in advance for sharing your knowledge with a total newbie!

    ID help

    Hi, Any ideas as to what this kind of fossils either of these are ? They are from near Sites, California. I'm not quite sure the age, but based on the age of mudstones in the area, it should be late Jurassic to Cretaceous. Note this is form a bore hole (not surface collected), but I am not positive of depth. Thank you in advance.
  22. So I'm sure nothing here is anything great or spectacular, I just decided I want to know a little about these things I've collected, mostly in my/friends backyards in DFW area. They are all on 12" pavers for size reference. I have a few bonus pieces of fossilized wood (and I'm not sure about the completely black pieces.. but very curious), and a couple of rocks thrown in for extra lol
  23. Hi, Another ID help question, I wasn't sure if these might be fish scales or plant fossils or something else. These are from Missouri, not sure of the age or more precise location unfortunately.
