Hi! Could someone help me identify this fossil on a stone found on the shore of Lake Erie, Ohio? Forgot to picture it next to a coin but the rock is about the size of a nickel. First picture is one side, second picture is the other side, same stone.

I found this on the banks of Whitney Lake in Texas. I have no prior knowledge of fossils, and was hoping somebody who did could help me figure out what this is. Anything would help, thanks.

I found these three fossils I’m pretty sure one of them is a coral but the other two I have no idea. Thanks in advance! Found in Grand Marais MI.

Hello everyone! My little brother made this nice find near Thrupp Lake in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, UK. The lake is close to the Thames river. It looks like some sort of shell fossil? The rock is about 8cm wide and 5cm tall. We'd appreciate any help identifying it! Thank you.

Hello everyone! I am looking for help to identify this macrofossil sample of a leaf. It shouldn't be older than pliocene. Really struggling to identify it. Thought of it as Nothofagus or maybe Populus. Was looking for it in Zelkova, but nothing quite matches it. Does anyone know or have a suggestions, what it could be? Thanks in advance! Philipp

ok i found this today amd my guess it is a tooth or teeth of a mammal .. could be a goat or something, i found it on shore of a lake next to an ancient village site. when that village was thriving some 2000 years ago, there was no lake but there was a river. Also the earth's color at the spot was reddish which would mean mammals i think.

Nothing has been said in the Colorado section for almost a year now so lets kick it back up. A little over a week ago I posted some pictures of florissant stuff in the I.D. section. I got a lot of good help and then for the ones we couldn't figure out I tried searching for some that are similar but there's not many different photos online from florissant. I was wondering if anyone could help or if someone knew the florissant formation really well.

A couple years ago I was on vacation in Wayne county Ohio, and I stepped on something in a lake I picked it up and found this. Originally, I thought it was a shell piece, but when I looked again it looked like a trilobite because of the three lines. I know it’s partial so I’m unsure if I’ll get an ID but I hope I do. Ignore the scratch marks, I tried uncovering more but the rock is very hard and impossible to clear with a small tool.

Hey everyone, New user here, very minor experience with fossils. I was curious if anyone would be interested in possibly identifying some specimens from Lake Michigan, from North Shore Beach in Ferrysburg, Michigan. It's on the West Coast of Michigan, but it would be the Eastern side of the Lake. Hope that isn't too confusing and I hope that I find you all well during these trying times. I have a couple more as well, if it's cool. Thanks for reading. Here are my humble hypotheses: 1: Some sort of Petoskey/Charlevoix stone or similar perhaps.

I stopped at Lake McConaughy (near Ogalalla, Nebraska) on my way out to Colorado and picked this (along with some nice burrow casts, probably clam) from one of the beaches. I’m not very familiar with the fossils in this part of the state and wondered if anyone could help me with who this chunk of bone may have belonged to. I know it’s a stretch to id this considering how little of the bone is there and the lack of either end, but any help would be appreciated.

I found this fossil on a vacation in shallow water at a lake a few years ago and have always been wondering what it was. I'm no fossil expert so I have never been able to identify it.

Hey guys! I’m currently out fishing on a lake (Champaign County, IL) and I noticed a bunch of fossils strewn about the rocks on the shore. I don’t think the rocks are from here, so I don’t know if I could give any geologic info unfortunately. If you could help me figure out what I’ve got, I’d really appreciate it! I’ll add more as I find more. Thanks! #1

Hello, I'm new here. Somebody suggested this site to me for help so here it goes. I found this item about 6-7 years ago in a lake while diving for remains. I ended up finding this. (buried under the sand) I have always wondered what it belonged to, and on another site I posted it nobody really had a clue either. It went from bear claw,boar to bird, etc... Nobody truly had a clue just idea's of what it could be. Now I have been really curious about what this actually is. If anyone has a clue please tell me. I can take more photo's if needed, the hole you see from

Hi all, I found this one seven years ago along the western shore of Georgian Bay, Ontario. It looked to me like the footprint of a very small theropod of some sort, but it might just be a misleadingly shaped rock. Any help would be appreciated!

Hello everyone, I found the following fossils along the cost of Lake Huron in Ontario last weekend, and was hoping I could get some help identifying them. I've tried guessing at what they are, but I'm rather inexperienced with this. I also have no clue as to the time periods, sorry! The first one I assumed was some kind of gastropod
