I know there isn't obvious visual on the specimen but due to the host material being one typical fossils are found in and because of the heavy weight of it and a specific shape, I was hoping I may possibly have a fossil that can still be identified or a place to start as to what is in this rock. Thanks Also the Photos 2,3,4 & 5 are what I consider the top half of the rock and you can clearly see a pointed ridge in the middle indicating that it's possibly a fossil. The first picture is of the opposite side "bottom" which is flat. Except for the right side which shows a ridge thr

Hello everyone, I’m a new member and although I did read the guidelines for posting, my apologies if I don’t get everything correct. I found these fossils on the Treasure Coast of Florida in excavated rock from a site approximately 15 miles inland from the coast. I cannot say the depth at which these fossils were specifically recovered but typically the quarries in this area go down to an elevation of about -5.00’ from the existing ground which is around elevation 20.00’ +/- a few feet. I don’t know if this information is helpful or just makes this a lot to read but I appreciate any input or c

This is described as a feline canine from the Pleistocene of Africa, 7cm long. Does that seem reasonable or does the fossil seem modern? And if it's a fossil, can anyone identify what animal it came from? Thanks.

Found in wise county in the puluxy formation..i believe this would classify as a replacement fossil ..maybe trace but its pretty apparent the skull structure is identical.

Found in Kentucky along AA Highway, Ordovician, Kope formation. I took it because it looked like a weird eyeball thing. I didn't think it was a fossil, just a weird rock, until I cleaned it off and found a bunch of trilobite bits on it. So that had me wondering if it was a trace fossil or if there might be something inside if I chipped away at the shape. Honestly I'm kinda itching to see if there is anything inside it. As it sorta, to my untrained eye, looks like something fell into the water about an eon ago and got covered up. However I don't want to take the Dremel t

Forgot about this one yesterday. It feels very smooth. I think I see some enamel, but I am the queen of wishful thinking so I don’t know

Found in Martin Kentucky, Middle Pennsylvanian, Hayden Formation. I thought I found a geode the other day so cut it open. The surrounding material got a somewhat mirror shine from the cutting tool (I assume iron rock). However when I hit it with a hammer and it cracked open I found this inside. It looks, to me, like a small fish or plant. I have no idea if this is even a fossil, so any help would be wonderful. Thanks in advance.

Found a couple of decades ago at Hopewell Rocks in Nova Scotia, Canada. Too light to be metal or rock.

discovered this in SW MO in a heavily timbered area buried roughly 10” deep. It measures 9 1/2” in length. If someone has some thoughts of what it could be I would love to hear your ideas.

Hi - I collected these specimens on my property in the Blue Ridge Mtns/Shenandoah Ridge, and I’m being told they are examples of petrified wood. I’m not so sure. I’d love to hear opinions from folks who know a lot more about these formations than I do. Thank you!

Hi everyone, I am very new to this and have an extremely vivid imagination so please bear with me I found this piece of limestone in lighting ridge Australia and I can't help but see what looks to be a palm leaf shape imprinted into it and on closer examination it looks like a small feather imprint also. I hope my images are helpful. Ready to be told it's just a rock
