Hi All! I'm trying to identify this fossil for a local museum, but I've never seen anything like it. We're not sure where it was found exactly, but definitely in Berrien County, MI. Our fossil record is heavily Devonian aquatic fossils, with later records of Pleistocene fauna. I'd be grateful for any help or tips anyone can give! Thanks! Katy

Hi all, I was in Italy on the Amalfi coast this past week, and stumbled across what I think may be a fossilized tooth. It looked cool so that’s why I picked it up. I could be wrong and it may be nothing. I’m hoping someone here can help me.

I found it on a south west cliff/beach and it has a odd internal spine like thing. Any ideas? I’m quite bad at IDs as well, so any clues about it ? Please help. Here’s some photos hope this helps. Thanks for your time. God fossils still fry my brain, just thinking how old, and it’s trip to get into my hand still makes me go woah! Last 2 phots show the spine like thing quite well

Hey y’all, it’s been awhile, hope y’all have been safe!! I found this in my driveway while looking at all the cool rocks that have been flooded to the surface in the past year. I’m 1/10 of mile to the water of Elk River at the Eastern most point of Lauderdale County North Alabama and Limestone Co. Our town boundaries are all water ways except north which ends at Giles Co, Tennessee. So it’s not hard to be close to the waterways, Elk River, and the banks. and that’s where all of the house on my road get there driveways lol (don’t tell TVA). My ruler is hiding but I have a 3x6 envelope and it’s about 3 in wide, 2 in high and 2 in deep. It looks like a sponge fossil puffball but those lines all connect beautifully with no stragglers. The light/ bright yellow lines are raised so it looks embossed, but it’s natural and the fissure does have small crystals present.

My wife ordered a 2 x 1 x 1 Meter raised bed for herbs last week and it was just delivered today. The first thing I did before I start putting the thing together was to dig up a plot of that size at the edge of the garden where I'll be placing it for her. It's interesting what you can come up with when you're turning over a new area in an old garden. When we first moved in and I started rearranging things out there I dug up a nice rock crystal block as well as things like marbles, plastic toys and other household paraphernalia. This time along with a couple of marbles I dug up a nicely preserved gastropod. I think that it's recent, but who knows? Maybe it's from the Holocene? Now I'd like to ask if anyone could help me out with the id on this little snail. It's 5cm. long. I've checked out @MikeR 's Tamiami Album and the closest I could come up with was Stramonita, but it doesn't quite fit.

Hey everyone! I was wondering if you could please help me identify these items and whether they are worth keeping! I found these three today at Beaumaris. The first one (pictures 1 + 2) appears to be some odd, fortuitous weathering of sandstone? In the second (picture 2) it seems that there may be some possible gastropod remains in there? The third item - the baguette! (pictures 3 + 4) It caught my interest due to the ridges on the top and flat base. I assume it's likely an sandstone concretion? It feels like rock on the outside and isn't as heavy as ironstone. Thanks in advance for any help!

Dear fellow forum goers, I am in need of some wisdom or advice concerning my college years. My first year of college is slowly coming to an end and I have some uncertainty for the future, as do we all. Neuroscience and Computer Science are the two disciplines that I believe myself to be eventually majoring in. I may also minor in philosophy or physics. My liberal arts school in Ohio has a winter term period that last about 1.75 months and for my winter term I interned at a pharmaceutical laboratory and worked on Huntington's Disease. I have nearly landed another internship working with epidemiology and computation this summer. I am somewhat unsure what I am truly interested in. The advice I need concerns a plan of mine: between sophomore year and junior year I would like to hike the Appalachian trail and take some time to conduct my own research or explore other fields that may be of interest to me. I would do this during college and not following college (undergrad) so that, in the case I find I actually enjoy physics more or some other subject more, I still have that 2 years to work towards changing my major and exploring new classes. I would not like to finish college and find that I wasted my time majoring in something that I enjoy less than my new interest. My life unfolds day by day, but it is awesome that so many other people have already experienced what I will come to experience. Your collective wisdom is appreciated. I hope you have a nice day and next fossil hunt, thank you for spending the time to read this and possibly reply.

So I've had a post before asking this but, does anyone know any fossils sites near Minneapolis, I know there is Lilydale, but it's currently closed, I don't care if it's a ditch next to a road, or if you need a permit I just want to know LEGAL fossil sites that I can go to, hunt, collect and leave! Thank you for the help!

Please help me figure out what this is! My Dad found it near his work about a year ago. It looks like it could be made out of road pavement or some kind of rock. It appears to have two slanted slits for eyes, two inward-curved ears, and what kind of looks like a spine on the back of it. I've attached photos, please help!
