Hello everyone! I took my daughter and 6 year old granddaughter on a “girls only road-trip” to Hanna Park in Jacksonville, Florida for some relaxation time. We did a lot of beach combing and I found some great fossils. I’ve been able to identify the majority of my haul, but need some ID assistance with a few remaining items. I have a some potential dermal denticles and scutes, and a piece of unknown bone. The bone is is very thin, less than 3 mm. I also have two TINY teeth; one may be a barracuda. I believe the other may be a shark but I haven’t been able to link it to a species.

Hey guys, found a new bone that I have no idea placing an ID on. Beach find, was in a hurry so please don’t mind the gameboy as scale.

Here are some photos of my 2nd ever fossil hunting trip on Saturday January 8th, 2022. On Friday Jan. 7th, was my first fossil hunting trip, which I posted a few days ago, obtaining mostly exogyra oysters from the North Sulphur River. So I went out the next morning in the rain to Jacksonville, TX, about an hour from me. I stopped along Hwy 69 just north of Love's Lookout, where there are steep rocky cliffs on either side of the highway. I only stayed an hour, as I was soaking wet. But I managed to chip away at several of the red rocks in the area (sorry, I don't know the geologic ages), trying

These pieces of "red" rock (I don't know the geologic terminology yet, sorry), have some unique features. Hopefully someone can help identify one, two, more, or all of them for me, if they are anything. If they are nothing, I'd like to know that also. These came from Jacksonville, Texas (south of Tyler, TX) in east Texas. Thanks in advance. 1) Is this an orthoceras nautiloid? 2) What is this impression? Ammonite? 3) Worm tube? Anything? 4) Worm tube? Rudist? Anything? 5) ?? No idea. Anything? What are the

Hi guys. I’m new to this forum. I have been hunting teeth for years and I am bored with finding small teeth. I have been searching the beaches and river, but am hoping someone would be kind enough to lead me in the right direction to finding a meg. I do desperately want to find one and I see people posting on FB that they find them all the time. Yay for them, boo for me. All I know is they are finding them on the St Johns, or so they say, but that’s a lot of area and being female, I don’t feel comfortable just venturing out all over alone trying to find out for myself where these spots may, or

Fellow fossil hunters! I live in Jacksonville Beach, FL and have been collecting sharks teeth and shells on our local beaches for a decade. I have found some great teeth on the beach (mostly in the winter when the tourists have gone ) but have yet to find a megalodon tooth or even a fragment of one! My father had some beautiful meg teeth in his collection from when they would dredge for beach renourishment, St. Johns River projects, ect. So I know they are out there to find but I've never been lucky enough to come across one. Has anyone had any luck finding meg teeth

Hello all, trying to help my daughter figure this one out. Found in silt in 5 feet of water around Fort George Island within the Timucuan Preserve in Jacksonville, Florida. Thank you

Found this along with dozens of other fossils while hunting in Jacksonville. Hard as a rock and has that indistinguishable feces look. Let me know what you guys think!

Any idea who this partial jaw bone belongs to?

I found this item at Onslow Beach in Jacksonville, NC however it wasn’t on the beach. It was found along the roadway approaching the ICW bridge located right before entering the beach strand. It has the shape of a tooth but that might be wishful thinking. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Porous like fossils with layered back, any ideas? Jacksonville, Florida
Cthulhu2 posted a topic in Fossil ID
Find these guys all the time, yet I have no Idea who they belong to and what the are. -
I am more than certain this is ivory, but I always like sharing. What do you guys think? The schreger lines seem worn from the waves. I believe this is partial cementum and mainly dentine.

Found a great new beach along the St Johns this past weekend and when night came I knew I was leaving teeth there and had to go back asap. Unfortunately I am not a morning person and the tides this week were early morning or at night. I chose to a night search not knowing how hard it is to surface collect teeth with just a headlamp. Nevertheless in my few hours combing the beach I found over 60 mostly very little teeth, but found this awesome GW to my surprise. The root was sticking out of the sand and I did not think it was a tooth, but had to investigate and I am very glad I did. For sure my
