Found in middleburg Florida. I generally just hunt for round rocks to epoxy but this one was stood out. There are actually a lot more like it but this is the only one with definition. Really just curious if someone knows anything about what it might be.

Milwaukee formation mystery fossil. Find a load like these
SilurianSalamander posted a topic in Fossil ID
I find lots of these external moulds/trace fossils at the Milwaukee formation I hunt at. Any ideas? I’m stumped. Devonian terrestrial and marine deposit -
Okay I bought a Small Steel statue of a chicken at a garage sale didn't think much of it until I got home.i went to set it on the table when I heard movement inside of it. It was pretty heavy so i didn't think it would be hollow but sure enough i take a better look at it and it looks like someone had made a while underneath it and welded it closed as it was two different colors now. I grabbed a metal grinder and very carefully made an opening and to my surprise found what appeared to look like dark brown sand and these two pieces of the same material but we're shaped like pebbles soft not much weight. I have searched everywhere online but haven't found one thing explaining what this could be so please if anyone has any insight in this it would be greatly appreciated. .

Hello we are the Placers. These were found at Crystal park, MT. I just thought they were neat rocks but when I started trying to take the crystals out of them I notice what looked like an eye socket and skin. So I stopped immediately and did this. So many different pieces almost like it was a den of them. All of these are from around the same place.

The rock is about the size of a large hand. I’m sorry to say I know nothing about fossils and we would be so grateful for some input! Thank you in advance !

Hello! Any ideas on what this could be? I found it years ago in a small Cincinnati river bed. It is free standing and not carved out...at least by hand. To me it resembles a bone ball joint. Any ideas? You all would know far more than me! Thank you! Length is 3” x 2” at top

Hi All! I am brand new here. I have had a life-long interest in all things archaeology/paleontology/geology and was always digging in the dirt as a kid. But I am a veterinarian by trade and have not a clue about any of these awesome things that so intrigue me, lol. The fossil pictured below is one I found on my parents' land (where I grew up) probably 30 years ago. I found it in a little valley area where a creek runs between two fairly large hills. Anyone have any idea what I have here? Thanks a bunch! Michelle

I’m not sure what I have here, I might have found this either in my backyard or in a nearby creek... I’m guessing that it was the creek. I was looking for rocks for my pond (2006). The fossil did not appear until a year or two later and I always wondered what it was. It measures 95mm x 35mm. Any clue would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance. JD

Help! I Have No Idea What I Bought.
wileyboys posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
I picked up a number of fossils, minerals, and petrified wood at an estate sale. My assumption was that they were real based on circumstantial evidence (he had a lot of other collectibles that were real and expensive). I will post 3 fossil photos and one "what the @%$# is it" picture. That one was supposedly petrified wood, but I cant find anything else like it on the internet. I am wondering if it is plant based or some type of other organism. The photos of the teeth and claw have a measuring tape next to it. The mystery item's are about 7"-13" long and about 6" tall. What are they and are they real. Claw was supposedly Allosaurus. Teeth are supposed to be a spinosaurus tooth and two big megalodon teeth. Thanks for your help. Also.... I was thinking about giving one to my son for his birthday unless they are worth hundreds of dollars. I am not looking for an appraisal but any ball park idea would be great.- 12 replies
