Found on Manitoulin Island. I believe at Kagawong... but unfortunately, it's been a while and I didn't make any notes at the time.

Not positive about this one. Found today north of Manitoulin, low to middle Bobcaygeon Fm. Despite very common ostracods, this is not a conspicuous cluster of them, methinks. Echinoderm? About 6 cm top to bottom.

What are these fossils and how old are they ?
FossilizedGerman posted a topic in Questions & Answers
Hello! So I found these three fossils and was curious to know about them... one i think is to be a bryozoan branch the tooth i believe to be a cow tooth not sure how old it may be and the last one is a type of small brachiopod its super tiny but again I don't know much about fossils yet but I am ready to learn more ! So if any one knows anything about these fossils that'd be a great help! First 6 pictures are from the riverbed and the last two are from the beach in Lübeck,Germany Thanks! -
Strange fossil. Found in wash south of Santa Fe, NM. P-wood in area. It is a heavy crystal rock with many swirls and whirls. Might be a coral. But just can't tell. An enigma---

Found at 1000 ft elevation in the coastal foothills of Ventura County, (Southern) California (34.305441, -119.195121). I only brought home and cleaned up 3 small pieces, but they appear to have broken off the larger piece shown (outdoor photo). I stumbled upon this poking up out of the surface soil. I know nothing about fossils but I'm very cuious and am grateful for any help identifying. Thank you.

I found these two stones on a beach on the southern coast of England, and they seem to have fossils embedded in them. I'm not sure what they could be, can someone here help me identify them? -
I found this while I was out running the other day - it was near the top of a mountain in Southwest Virginia. Is this a coral fossil? Could the thing on the end be a brachipod fossil? Sorry my measuring tape only had inches, but I figured it was better than nothing!

Found today on the shoreline of Lake Ontario.

I don’t know where it was found or how old was it is. I found it at one of the cave the mounds sleuthing sites in Dane county Wisconsin, its about 3cm long and looks a bit like coral.

Could this be a sponge? Note the radial structure and the occasional branching rods. Collected in Missouri, but location and age are unknown. Also, the specimen is sawn to 3/4" thick and the fossil doesn't extend into the sawn area! There is a lot of tiny crinoidal hash in the matrix rock. The light blue grid is one inch.

The following pics are of one piece. It’s a small but interesting fossil found in New Orleans gravel. Can anyone ID this? Looks a little different than what I usually come across. Thanks in advance!

Alright...I think I finally found some fossils! Are any of these identifiable? These were found past Strawberry and Pine on the Mogollon Rim in Northern Arizona. Thanks in advance! #1

Hi All, A friend of mine sent me photos of a potential fossil that he has. To me it looks like a potential coral? Or maybe it's geologic? I have no idea what it is. He has no idea where it was collected. Sorry I can't give more info If anyone has any suggestions. Thanks

Hello everyone, back again with another request for fossil ID. I found this rock on a small rocky beach in western Michigan, the same location I find a lot of my fossils in. At first glance I thought it may have been a Petoskey stone (Hexagonaria percarinata), but upon closer examination it doesn't really look anything like one. In fact, it doesn't really even look like a coral to me, though I could be wrong. That is my only guess, so it might actually be one. I'm also curious as to the reddish bands that are visible on the side of the rock. If anyone could shed some light, it'd be

This fossil was found in Gotland, Sweden and i have no idea what it is...Maybe a type of coral?

I would welcome any help identifying a fossil that I suspect to be some sort of bacteria/coral/sponge/aquatic item. Sorry to sound so ignorant about it, but I really don't know aquatic life by sight. The fossil is 6 cm long X 4 cm tall X 2 cm thick. Found in an Upper Cretaceous area, Kirtland Formation of northwestern New Mexico. The fossil has the small pits located around the edges and on the opposite side too. Thanks!

Found this in the Peace River in the spring and have been trying to find something to compare it to ever since. Haven't been able to find anything like it. It has the appearance of shell or coral. The color is a dull gray and it has the look and feel of metal. Don't know if it is any type of fossil or just a suggestive "something". If anyone has seen anything similar or has any idea what it is your input would be appreciated.

Found this in Southeast Wisconsin. Help identifying would be appreciated! It's about 3" long 3" deep 2" tall triangular (ish) in shape. The back is very cool as well. Thank you.

Found this interesting rock at the creek today and was wondering what y'all can tell me about it? I can find cool stuff all day but I can't really tell y'all much about it. The little round thing in it is what I was most curious about, and I just figured it would be cool for you all to look at as well.

So here is this rock that I thought looked similar to coral and is actually the rock that made me discover part of missouri was underwater at some point in history. Is this a piece of coral ? And if not can anybody tell me what it is ? I'm back and forth on this is it coral? or is it made of sediment? Or something else altogether?

Please tell me those are fish!!! (One of my dream find fossils)Found this near downtown Lockhart believe it or not, I’m a little protective over the spot cuz I COULD get super specific on this one and it’s not very off the beaten path ...lol

Hi everyone, I found this in marine pliocene-pleistocene sediments. The rock is a sandstone with large cemented elements (pebbles and fragments of shells). What is that round object? It has an ornamentation made of small holes, fairly regular, under the surface the holes seem to widen into small chambers (as you can see in the broken point). Could it be a coral or a fossil sponge? Dimension of the round object: 40x25mm Thanks
