Hello everyone, I'd like to share my extreme budget collection of exotic megs/shark teeth so far, I've have been collecting shark teeth and other for a little over a year and a half now on an extremely tight budget and have been surprised by what I was able to get a hold of so far. Condition doesn't bother me hence the budget but I have been able to find some megs from from interesting locations over the short period of time I've been collecting with a little bit of luck. Locations include Puerto Rico, Cuba, Japan, Hawaii, Morocco, Mexico, Peru, and The Phillipines. Anyone else out

Today, I found this coconut-sized fossil (or just rock) partially imbedded into very brittle (shale-like) cliffside along a hiking trail on Oahu, about 2,000 feet in elevation. The branching pattern along the surface is what caught my attention. At first, I thought it looked like a coconut, but then remembered that coconuts are not actually indigenous to Hawaii. I then press my thumb against the front and a chunk crumbled off, revealing highly defined internal layers. I’m actually a chemist, not a geologist; so I am fascinated, but at a loss. Fossil or not, can anyone help me understand wh

A few months ago, I encountered this peculiar, potential, bone along the shoreline of the Big Island of Hawaii. I noticed it’s porous material, but was puzzled by its overall appearance. I’m not sure if is fossilized or not; however, it is slightly larger then a standard quarter. Thanks for your time!

Found this partial tooth a few years ago in some Holo-Pleistocene marine sediments on Oahu, Hawaii. There is also the chance that it is more recent, as there had been some dredging in the area, though I haven't seen any evidence at this location. Approximately half of this tooth is missing. What remains is half of the crown and one root lobe. It is 17 mm in maximum dimension. My guess is carnassial. Seal? Canid? Appreciate any and all input.

My uncle got me this shark tooth necklace from Hawaii but doesn’t know what kind of shark it’s from and I’d love to know!

Since my wife is several months into a 6 month deployment to Hawaii with the Army, I opted to catch a bird out that direction to enjoy a long Veterans Day weekend with her. (Side note: It was recently announced that she'll be promoted from Lt. Colonel to Colonel, awaiting congressional vote at this point. Very proud of her!) Anyway, when we weren't hiking, snorkeling, or surfing, some fossil hunting came into play. Most of us don't associate fossils with Hawaii, being young volcanic islands and all, but there is in fact a thin reef limestone intermittently encircling Oahu. If

Hello gang! So we are being mildly inconvenienced at the moment while hurricane Irma comes/goes by so I'll try to post a few photos from my phone while we still have backup power and lights.

Edit....guess I have got a file size limit prob so this may be embarassing...uggh

I found this little gem while walking the beach in Maui near the town of Kihei. Is this a tooth of some kind?
