I found this coral in central Kentucky. Many are mostly free of any matrix. I am planing to put them in small glass display boxes to give as holiday gifts. Should I leave them as-is? Or can I brighten them up somehow, without taking away their character? They have all been found in an old rail road cut. The matrix around the other fossils appears to be mostly sandstone, with some in limestone. I took a few pictures of the loose coral and some still in matrix. All have been found within ~75 yard radius. I haven’t prepared them in anyway, other than sitting in the rain. My plan is to go over them with a toothbrush, then warm soapy water with a brushing. Thanks in advance for any suggestions, thoughts or opinions.

Hello! I found this amazing fossil on my mom’s property in Pueblo, Colorado. I’ve tried to do some extensive research online to see what type of vertebrae animal/marine life this is. Could you please help identify? thank you so much!

I was not aware I would find something like such in the Upper Glen Rose formation here in Comal County Texas. I have never found a fossil like this in the region, am I mistaking what I first thought this was? Can anyone shed some light on this fossil I found today, that too me seemed out of place? Is this limestone cap perhaps much older? Thanks ahead of time for the clarification.

Hi! I find this rock in the bottom of a shelf with a lot of fossil from different locations (Hungary, Morocco, Czech Republic, Madagascar ect.), but in this case i didn't find any paper . The rock is hard black limestone with quartz in the depression of the surface. I've never seen this kind of fossil before, I appreciate any help!
