Pulled this from roughly 3-4 feet deep in my backyard on the far west/nw edge of San Antonio. Found a rock bed as I was digging. Odd because until then the soil was actually soil…it was dark and was easy to shovel. I’ve dug holes all around my property and at many other spots around this area and I’ve always hit a very solid layer of limestone before even getting a foot deep. So 3 feet was noteworthy. And that was about 8 months ago. It took me that amount of time to uncover this one. It’s a hair shy of 2lbs4oz/ just over 1kg. Any thoughts on it?

Id help! I’m not sure if this in an animal skull or just a rock
jwestbury posted a topic in Fossil ID
I have this piece from Central Indiana (Generally the Mississippian or Tertiary/Quatemary). What I find fascinating is that it appears to be a nasal cavity. I’m not sure if it’s coincidence or something of actual interest. I took quite a few pictures some with stronger flash so you can see the difference in the different light. -
Good afternoon everyone! This is a tooth that my girlfriend found while sifting in the river and we aren't quite sure what type of tooth it is so any help would be greatly appreciated. I am pretty sure that is it mammal and I want to assume that it is carnivore since it doesn't seem like a grinding surface.

Hi everybody, I'm hoping you can provide help in identifying the following object. I am a complete amateur, but have been wondering about this specific rock for a long time. I tried to make clear pictures, some on centimeter paper. Short story about the object: my mother has lived in South Portugal for a long time, near a river that usually runs dry in the summer. Over the years she and I collected numerous beautifull stones there, usually no fossils. The area knows some places (higher up in the mountains) that are fossil rich, but those do not resemble this specific one. At o

Real or fake trilobite from Morocco?
Self-taught posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello everybody! Someone offered me a Scabrella to buy... As it is a rare trilobite I have doubts about its authenticity. Can you help me? Please! -

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

First off, I'm a complete novice when it comes to fossils so please ignore my ignorance! I recently found my first fossil and I'm still waiting for the bits to arrive so I can have a go at prepping it. On hearing this and my excitement about it my Mother In Law handed me a rock and said I found this about 30 years ago on a trip to Brighton in England I want you to have it. I think it might be an Ammonite (complete guess based on pictures I've seen of Ammonites), also when I first looked at it I thought it was merely the impression left by the fossil, but on looking at

New to this group so I hope I'm posting within guidelines. Apologies if not. My son found this at Charmouth last winter and it's been stashed in his jar of belemnites. But last night he noticed this one is different, it has ridges on both sides and isn't cone shaped like the others. He's hoping its pterosaur! Can anyone help with ID? Thanks.

I got a view year ago some teeth with the ID Rysosteus oweni. Now I have time to ID the tooth I was looking very carefull to the details. But have a problem to ID the. Tooth 1 is 0.9 cm ans Tooth 2 is 0.6 cm. To compare them with Pachystropheus rhaeticus I need to know how a Pachystropheus rhaeticus tooth look like. I read many Aust papers but no pachystropheus rhaeticus tooth. Who can help me with the correct ID? Is it Pachystropheus as sold, or Birgeria?
