I do lapidary, and cut a lot of rocks. I bought this one, and eventually cut it in half. I assume it was a concretion or a solid geode of sorts. Still interesting so I will send you a few photos. Thank You David

Hello, My fiancé and I were hunting for meteorite fragments and found this very unique 'artifact' at her family ranch in Starr County, Texas. I have no idea what it is and want help identifying it. A very uneducated guess is that it may be a dinosaur egg with ancient carvings - total guess. The lines around the 'eye' are raised.. not carved in. Apologies if I am using incorrect terminology. I just want help in my quest to identify it. There were quite a few arrowheads found near this 'artifact' as well. Any ideas or suggestions welcome in helping identify this! Thank you

At an auction, a family member purchased about 20 specimens that are similar to these two. All are circular, flattened to various degrees, some complete, some broken. The only information given was that they are dinosaur coprolite. I don't think so, since it doesn't look like any dino doo-doo I've ever seen. At first I thought they were just geodes, and they might be, but then I saw this: https://www.geologyin.com/.../rock-containing-stunning... So now I'm wondering if they might be squashed dino eggs? On the one photo, the arrows indicate what I think might be shell.

I purchased this Dinosaur egg and now I want to prep it a little. I don't have an airscribe, is there another way to remove the thin layer of matrix without damaging the eggshell or shell structure?

Live in IA, found in river rock at a Dollar General. Looked like small fossilized potato. After examining it, , I put it in vinegar and water to clean and something started to appear. So I stopped, didn't want to damage what was inside or take off the remaining shell. I do know that river rock is shipped from NW states and Canada. Questions are, what type of egg? And is it a body fossil with embryo? 2 1/2 inches (L) × 1 1/2 inches (lg end) and 1 inch (small end) (W), 4 inches circumference.

I was referred to this page by fossil sites on Facebook. All I know about fossils, is, it's never an egg.. but quite a few folks thought this could be an egg. Found in western Arizona in a dry part of the desert, but near a series of washes where water flow occasional moves things around. 5cm x 3.5cm

Hello, Fellow Fossil Enthusiasts! I'm hoping that someone here might be able to help me in identifying these fossils, because I have hundreds of them in various stages of development, and in all of my research I have yet to find anything that remotely resembles what I've got! That is, until I found this forum - I've seen a few fossils identified here that were the very first that closely resembled what I've found, so my hope has been renewed that someone out there can help me out. I look forward to what new information might come my way! Scott

Which higher quality fossils will become harder to obtain in the future? Both are excellent quality fossils, but I'm thinking of buying the one that will be harder to obtain in the future. Could you tell me anyone? I would appreciate it if you could tell me. I appreciate everyone's comments! thank you very much! Oviraptor egg Carcharodontosaurus tooth -
Hello everyone. Thanks for any comment or information. Looks like limestone. Not sure if its just a natural formation or some type of egg fossilized in the limestone or a complete petrified egg. Any input is appreciated. The item was found in a creek in Middle Tennessee near the Kentucky State Line. No measurements photographed but its an oval shape 4 1/2 inches long and 3 inches in diameter. It was split when it was found. The pieces were approximately 5 feet apart. Looks like it has been cracked for some time from the wear where it fits back together. When placing both sides together just right it seats solidly in place so, I know at one time it was a solid piece.
