    Big tooth !

    Hello, i saw this absolutely massive tooth for sale today. The finding location is unknown, but it reminds me a bit of Suchomimus, but its way to big. Maybe a sperm whale tooth ? Maybe someone can tell from the pictures which animal this tooth belongs to.
  2. With the recent marktet and the introduction of Suchomimus tenerensis teeth, i was wondering what are your biggest and best Suchomimus teeth from there? I currently own a serrated and partially rooted tooth that is close to 3.5 inches. But show me all of yours!
  3. Found this hastalis shark tooth in a florida creek was just wanting to share, but also wanting to ask whats the biggest lesser great white tooth people have found or personal found. Ive only been fossil hunting for two years but this is my personal best hastalis tooth its about 2.7 inches.
  4. So i found this Ammonite few months ago. I want to prep it but there is some factors that made me think its quite hard/impossible with the tools that I have right now The first thing is how sticky is the matrix (I dont know if you can see in the image) but the matrix is really sticky and thick in some places. The second thing is the size of the specimen, and its not even complete. Thats the principal thing that made me want to prep it, but I dont know if is possible I have the Dremel 290 with the Zoic tips

    Multiple fossils

    Found Grand Traverse MICHIGAN Finding a lot in my yard...dug this huge rock up with multiple fossils. What period?
  6. Heres a fun thread for those to show off their widest and fattest looking megalodon teeth fossils in thier collections. I'll set the tone with the widest fat boy in my collection, I don't have digital calipers but it measure roughly 5.4 inches wide by 6.1 inches long. When I close my hand together it looks even more monstrous. Share yours and join the wide boyclub Got the idea while thinking about what the widest megalodon tooth ever found measures, if anyone does know do share in this thread!
  7. This has come up for sale on my local auction site..... The listing says it is a large fossilized bone/ tooth, 70cm long and there is no information in the description. Obviously, this is not a tooth! It looks like modern bone, not fossil Someone has to know what animal this is from, the shape is so distinctive! I feel like I should know just because of how distinctive it is but I can't place it.... so, experts - help! Tape measure is in cm

    Jefferson county,mo

    Found this during my latest exploration. I'm beyond novice any help greatly appreciated. Measure is 100mmx100mm the actual bone is 90mmx90mm
  9. My new Spinosaurus Aegypticus tooth just came in. And it's a big one! Over 4'5 inches / 11.5 Centimeters long. Was wondering if you can see any doings with it? So far i can't.

    Large cephalopod from Graf

    I was collecting isorthoceras cephalopods at Graf Iowa (Elgin Member of the Maquoketa Formation, upper Ordovician). I found one partial specimen that in cross-section is about 8-9 times larger than any other I’ve found there. This first pic is from the field. (Don’t worry, the next photos have a scale cube in them!) The large specimen is about 8.9 cm by 5 cm. You can see cross sections of the usual-size isorthoceras in the rock (filled and infilled), and they’re closer to 1 cm across. Unfortunately, the specimen is fairly fragile. I’ve already had to glue together six pieces it fell apart into, and I haven’t been able to remove it from the matrix any further to get a better look at its sides. I’m wondering whether it’s an unusually large isorthoceras or a different animal altogether. Thoughts?
  11. I just obtained a new fossil and tried to take it out of the rock, but in the process I discovered that the root of one of this tooth was artificially shaped with a chalk-like material. Moreover, it seems to be squeezed by the stratum, causing the entire crown to be rotated to the left, so I decided not to continue cleaning to avoid the entire specimen from breaking. (The longest side of this tooth is three inches long.)

    Is it a fuzulinid fossil?

    Some are larger than 3cm in diameter, which is a little weird, which one is it?
  17. We have many wonderful threads that let members show off some of their fossils. Threads like “Fossil du Jour” and your “Latest Mail Box Score.” In that same spirit, I wanted to see if anyone would be willing to share examples of some of their BIG fossils. It could be as simple as the largest fossil in your collection, or the largest example you have of a certain type of fossil. Just as long as you would in some way consider them to be on the large side. I’ll go first. This is the largest fossil in my collection. It's a piece of petrified wood. Its roughly 15in long x 14in wide and 4.75in thick. That's about 38cm x 35.5cm x 12cm to the rest of the world. I can't find my scale to weigh the thing, but it is at least 50 pounds or roughly 22.5kg. I would guess it to weigh more. Unfortunately, I have no information on this piece. It was gifted to me by a friend who had it gifted to them by someone else. This is the largest crinoid columnal (in diameter) that I have ever found. It's about 1.25in wide (3.1cm). It's from the lower Mississippian. (Borden Formation, Muldraugh member). Unidentified as of now.
  18. Hi, We hired a mansion that was abandoned for several years and strolling through the gardens I saw what I thought was a small concrete chair, hidden under leafs and bushes. I did not give it a second thought until the next day when I looked at it again and recognized it as a vertebrae, a big vertebrae. Upon giving it a closer look I saw that it was not concrete but more likely bone. And then I figured it could be a dinosaur bone, hence coming here and asking your opinion. Full width is about 60 cm, see pictures below. Thanks in advance. Best, Pieter
  19. Hi, i was hiking in Israel some weeks ago in the dessert and stumbled upon this fossil tooth, anyone know from what animal or species this might be from? Height 4cm width 2cm As you can see it is not sharp at all, very smooth with lines from top to bottom Thanks

    Dinosaur tooth?

    Hey guys, I saw this listed on online, the seller dosent really know what this is and I don’t have a clue either. Do you guys have any idea what this might be?

    Big Brook

    Dear all, I would like to submit three artifacts from the Big Brook site that some of you know so well. 1) The first is most likely a concretion. however, on one side, there is a regular cut with a circular end section. I have no particular idea. 2) The second artifact could be a theropod tooth, with a elliptical cross-section. In this hypothesis we distinguish quite clearly the crown base at the cervix, with the dentine layer. On another image, we can see worn denticles in (presumed) mesial view, but the outermost enamel layer is very corroded and the dental layer is missing in some places. 3) Tooth fragment (?). If so, note the pulp cavity (?) Thank you all for your invaluable comments. I am of course at your disposal for other photographs. Best, Sancerre

    Antorbital fossa

    Hi I’m wondering what the Antorbital fossa is for in dinosaurs. I heard it could be part of muscle attachments or nasal passages. If so if a dinosaur has a big Antorbital fossa does it mean they have better nose or stronger jaw muscles. Thank you!!

    Tooth ?

    Here is a piece from the Big Brook area in New Jersey. I've had it a while but never got around to posting it. The texture looks like tooth ?

    Fossil Fish: Neoproscinetes?

    Good day, I'd like some help to identify this fossil fish. It is nearly 11 inches long. From what I've searched it looks similar to Neoproscinetes, but I'm no master of fossil fishes. I'd like to know its species name and if it is indeed a real fossil fish.
