Hello, everyone. Recently I received an interesting fossil, like a pile of marine invertebrates. It is very hard and heavy. The seller said that he was not sure about the source information. I hope someone can help me identify it. Thanks

I was at Penn Dixie a few weeks ago and had trouble figuring out what a couple of my finds could be. My first thought for this one was a piece of a trilobite, but I’m not 100% sure on that. I don’t know where to start with this one. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hey guys! I apologize in advance as I couldn’t get any measurements. I was packing to move and I have it in a box on a truck on the way to the new house. I found this specimen in the Appalachian coal fields of Eastern Kentucky. At first glance I assumed it was a leaf but as I looked closer it looks astonishingly like a tiny insect wing. The rock contains additional fossils and I excavated the layer this piece came from and found many lepidodendron and calamite fragments. The fossils I have found in this layer are extremely well preserved and extremely fragile so I tried my best to get this piece packaged up very well and somewhere safe after I took pictures. I’m not certain as to what this is so I appreciate the help in trying to identify it.

Hey guys, this is my first post to this forum and I’m excited to be here. I am an amateur but I have come a long way when it comes to fossil hunting and I have a pretty large collection of quality fossils. I found this piece in the Appalachian coal fields of Eastern Kentucky, mixed in with other fossils from the Pennsylvanian. To me it appears to be some sort of invertebrate fossil but it is preserved in a type of sandstone and as far as I could guess I would imagine that an earthworm-like specimen would be too delicate to be preserved to this detail. It is definitely weathered by the rain and snow we have had lately but you can still see an amount of detail. A friend of mine who is also an amateur suggested it could be a type of millipede but we simply do not know for sure what it is. Thanks for the help!

Ammonite sites in Montana, Wyoming, North & South Dakota!
PrehistoricWonders posted a topic in Questions & Answers
Hey everyone! I know it’s a long shot, but I’m currently in Montana and will be for abt 1 1/2 more days, and was wondering if anyone had any ammonite sites in Montana, South and North Dakota, or Wyoming, I’d be willing to trade a spot, or take whomever it was out to Ernst quarries, or trade fossils for the site, if anyone’s interested in that, please let me know. -
This triangular prism is covered in small fossils of coral, bivalves, and trace fossils. The main question I have is about these 6 curvy lines going through the entire rock. Bioturbation? Stromatolite? Erosion? It was found just outside of Las Vegas.

I wanted to thank everyones thats helped me figure out what I'm doing! With the stimulus checks I purchased me a cheap 290 dremel on online, specialized tips, and some paraloid. I got em all together about a month ago and have been prepping most days since. This has been really fun to do and I'm thankful for the knowledge y'all shared with me. The crabs from left to right are the order I found and prepped them and are also named charles, duchess, and peanut butter!
