I found this recently in Rio Rancho New Mexico. It looks a bit like a coprolite, or maybe an encased ? ammonite type shell. The top part looks very different than the base that has fossils visible. I am not sure if they just melded together or are part of the same thing. Can I tumble it? Or should I cut it? What would you do? Help me ID it please. My pics are too big, so I will upload more as comments. Thank you Leesaa

Hello Forum, This is my first post since joining the Forum. I may need a little grace if I am not spot on regarding protocol or formatting. I found this unknown fossil in SW Florida while looking for shark teeth in the ocean. I tried to capture the "pebble like" texture of the surface. I have not come across a fossil with this type of feel to it. I appreciate any help you can give me.

Found this piece on a walk near a Triassic outcrop in Pennsylvania, has a pretty exact visual similiarity to the wing rib of a Triassic reptile but is likely just some form of sedimentary trace. It would be great to get some more opinions on this piece to see if its worth holding onto or I would label it to be definitely sedimentary and rid of it, which I feel is the case.

Hey all, I was hunting for sharks teeth this morning and found this. Is it a fossil or just a rock? My initial inclination is just a rock, but figured the shape was worth an ask. Thanks in advance!

Found this while digging in my backyard in Southern California. More specifically, Cerritos, which is just a few miles north east of Long Beach. I uncovered a whole layer of interesting rocks, a huge chunk of breccia, shale, sandstone, and even a ~2 in. long quartz, but this one actually looks like a coral to me. I can add close ups if necessary.

Chenanisaurus Barbaricus Tooth? Or Carch?
Kurufossils posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Came across this tooth labeled as an abelisaurus belonging to chinanisaurus barbaricus from the Maastrichtian supposedly found in the phosphate mines of the Ouled Abdoun basin. Looks pretty thick to be abelisaurus and comparable to an extent to some carcharodontosaurus teeth. Is there a way tell the difference or will there need to be more specifics involved.

I found this in Nyack, NY near the water, close to where fossils have been discovered before. It looks as though it has some of the characteristics often discussed in this forum in regards to fossilized eg gs. Please forgive me if this is another river stone...

When I saw it in the screen, I honestly thought it was just an acorn or something, but I did the sound check and sure enough, it's got that bone bell sound. Not really sure about this one, any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Location: Big Brook in NJ Date Found: August 2020

Hello! We were at Big Brook today and my son found this. Not sure what it is (if anything) and I cannot find any thing similar on the Big Brook websites. We also found some teeth and what might be a hadrosaur tooth fragment (second image). Can anyone confirm the hadrosaur tooth?
