  1. I did find this item on the river bank of the Mississippi river, in a tiny cove right smack between Alton, IL and St. Louis county, MO. No digging required, I was just trolling the embankment. Do you think it is bone? All the photos are the same item, just different angles and close ups.

    Found this while mushroom hunting

    I found this on top of the ground while mushroom hunting. I have collected arrowheads, fossils, and other odd/cool looking rocks for a number of years but have never seen anything like it before. I found it a few miles south east of Calhoun,Missouri close to Henry county road NE 300, and a few yards from Tebo creek. I appreciate any help identifying what it is and approximately how old.
  3. After finding more time to survey my property. I have noticed many rocks with fossils, trying to be careful with the terminology that I am not aware. I have 35 years of finding Indian artifacts; arrowheads, grinding stones, bird points from the area of my hometown. But no experience with fossils at the location that I have recently moved in. Current Location: Eureka, Missouri. Jefferson County. Shelf Rock, halfway up a steep hill in a narrow valley. Rocky Terrain mixed with Clay below the topsoil. I have found layers of shelf rock, with multiple layers of hardened fossils compacted together similar to the image uploaded. In between these layers a "sand like" material. In One image, the small "Y" shape fossil was found in the "sand" layer. At first thinking it was fish bone, but upon closer look it shows a pattern similar to coral like. Cannot zoom close enough, will try again at a future date if needed. Would appreciate any knowledge with identification and how old they may be. Thank You for the response.
  4. Hey Folks, went hunting last Saturday with my wife and Granddaughter looking for Trilobites. My wife just killed it with 2 large Isotelus Trilobites and a super rare DOUBLE Isotelus slab! Me??? They don't call me Empty Pockets for nothing! YouTube video here: Prepped pics are at the end of the video.

    What is this?

    I found this in a creek bed in the Ozarks. I have found multiple Ordovician fossils. I was just wondering if anyone has seen something like this or if it is just a weird rock formation.

    Backyard find - I've seen this here before?

    So there is this nifty oddity, I found it in my backyard pool decor rock bed. The first photo is the entire thing. Then i show them separately. I am sorry that I used the penny this time for size, I found my square for the next time.. I saw someone else post a fossil like this one; however, I am a newbie and I have not figured out how to look for other photos yet.

    Nodule #7: Skin impression?

    From the album: Muncie Creek Shale Phosphatic Nodules

    I believe the dark brown may indeed be skin while the blue part is cartilage.

    Nodule #5: Fish Cartilage

    From the album: Muncie Creek Shale Phosphatic Nodules

    One of my larger concretions and personal favorites
  10. From the album: Muncie Creek Shale Phosphatic Nodules

    This concretion came out in multiple parts and I was able to salvage the tip. I will restore this specimen and prep it in the future!
  11. From the album: Muncie Creek Shale Phosphatic Nodules

    The second half of the cartilage pterygiophores When breaking the concretion most of the internal structure was unfortunately damaged

    Nodule #6: Fish material

    From the album: Muncie Creek Shale Phosphatic Nodules

    My best guess is fish material or crustacean material
  13. Samurai

    Nodule #4: Unidentified

    From the album: Muncie Creek Shale Phosphatic Nodules

    I assume this is some sort of bone either from a fish or some sort of other specimen. It could be a spine of some sort but I am extremely doubtful
  14. Samurai

    Nodule #8: Possibly Gular Bone

    From the album: Muncie Creek Shale Phosphatic Nodules

    Close up picture, identifications are welcomed!
  15. From the album: Missouri Plant Fossils

    I was recently contacted by a specialist who is studying Neuropteris lindahli and identified this section as most certainly being another piece, I have another section here which he identified as another Neuropteris lindahli mislabeled as Pecopteris sp.

    Trepospira sp. gastropod

    From the album: Missouri Ammonoids, Nautiloids and Gastropods

    Gastropod fossil, (originally misidentified as an ammonite), Gave it to a friend a year ago so I was unable to measure it properly

    What are these?

    My friend found these about 15ft underground in Polaski County Missouri. He said there were quite a few like 68 I think. Each one has something on the inside that rattles when you shake it. He busted the one in top left of main photo open and it looks to be a yolk but not sure. All his eggs are roughly the same size beside the small one on right and I would say they are a little larger than baseball size but can't say for sure what measurements are. Any ideas?

    Trilobite?

    Hello, been a while since I've been online, but getting back into the fossil world! Here is a specimen that is about 4 inches on a large rock that I would like to try an extract. Does this look like a trilobite to you all? Eastern MO.

    Coral?

    Is this a stretched out, coiled coral? Burlington formation, eastern Missouri. Thanks!

    Bryozoan

    Recent Eastern MO find. Some sort of bryozoan? I'd like to clean it up a bit without damaging it, any tips are appreciated. Thanks!
  21. Looking for some info on this specimen from Eastern MO. Is this perhaps some sort of cephalopod impression partially replaced by calcite crystals? Thanks!

    Crystalized fossil or a pipe dream?

    I have a rock feature that I am a bit doubtful, but hopeful about. I have a few "crystalized" fossils and have seen some very nice ones from near my hunting area also posted. This does mean that there are some out there. This little feature measures almost 11mm long and is 6mm wide. In hand, the left side really looks like a head segment of some sort with the line and what does look like two eye spots. The main area has what looks like segment end features going around the sides. The square crystal feature in the center is a totally new one for me. I have found literally hundreds, if not thousands of crystal specimens (mostly in the quartz family) and have never seen anything like this. This rock has several other fossil and fossil imprints in it. There are cephlapod fossils, rugose coral fossils, and other features that I am still researching. Researching and using the state geological map, it was found in a late ordovician period area. It was found outside of Willow Springs, Missouri, USA. My hopes are that it is a trilobite fossil of some sort or an isopod fossil. I am NOT getting my hopes up real high though.
