I turned today into a fun adventure! Today I was to go to jury duty but was dismissed at 9am. Since I had the day off from both my job and school I decided to tell the spouse to grab my hiking bag out of the closet and get my bucket out the back yard. The best thing about where I live in TX at the moment is that I literally live smach dab in the middle of 2 famous fossil hotspots in north Texas- both are about the same distance. The day was new and I was free. I wanted to try them both! So I did. NSR first. Today was perfect- not too hot not too cold. Clouds! Breeze and shade.

I got a few NSR shark teeth and this one has me stumped. It’s small at 6mm and not complete but I think an ID is possible given it’s unique features. It has distinct folds and the cusp has an odd bend. I was wondering if it could be a Cretodus tooth of some odd position. That’s my best guess at the moment. I don’t think it’s Goblin or Sand Tiger. Ozan Formation NSR Texas.

Shark teeth (at least in my experience) are really hard to find at NSR. The best method would probably be to sift for them in gravel, but I've yet to do that. The odd looking one is actually the base of sawfish rostral tooth.- 1 comment

This bone is highly mineralized, and when the crystal planes are at the right angle, the bone will flash at you. -

I am wondering about two more pieces I found on my walk down the NSR. Are they just rocks? 3 pictures of each. Thanks again in advance!
-
Wondering about another piece I found on my trip to the North Sulfur River. Could it be bone or tooth? Thanks in advance for any information!
-
I have a few more things that I am unsure of, well actually, I am unsure about all of my finds, as I am just learning. These are a few more things I found walking and digging the North Sulfur River. Any info is greatly appreciated!

Total newbie at fossils and to this forum. Husband and I spent the weekend exploring the NSR in Ladonia Texas. Had so much fun and think I found some cool stuff. Definitely some teeth, some baculite? Maybe some petrified wood? Thanks in advance for anyone who is kind enough to respond.

Total newbie here, hoping for some help identifying my finds. Spent the weekend digging and exploring the NSR in Ladonia. I know I have some teeth and baculite. Any info will be greatly appreciated. 20201205_161611.jpg, 20201206_153351.jpg, 20201207_081104.jpg, 20201207_081130.jpg, 20201207_081212.jpg, 20201207_081228.jpg, 20201207_081251.jpg, 20201207_081329.jpg

Identification: Mosasaur teeth can be difficult to assign to a species. However, given the size of the tooth, it must be from T. proriger - the only Mosasaur in the formation large enough to produce this tooth. Notes: Shows feeding wear (pictured) with mostly complete enamel. Uncommon find for this formation/locality. Identifiers: This identification is supported by Michael J. Polcyn (researcher specializing in the evolution of Mosasaurs) of Southern Methodist University, Dallas, TX, USA. Citation: COPE, EDWARD D., 1869, Remarks on Holops brevispinus, Ornitho

I'm a rookie. This is my second post. I've been out on two "expeditions" and made some interesting finds. When I picked up this fossil?, I noticed it was caulked on the back side, I found that perplexing. North East Texas, Fannin County, Eagle Ford Group, Ozan Formation, North Sulfur River Bed. It appears to be a vertebra. Please help identify. Thanks!
