Picked out of gravel bank with lovely mix of Qal, Eagle Ford, and who knows what. I find arrowheads alongside crinoid stems. Anyway the symmetry of this caught my eye, it looks like a barrel bead used in jewelry making. I'll be darned if it didn't have two perfectly aligned holes that appear filled in. The ends are identical, I have seen several things that look just like it but I know it could be another concretion trick so seeking professional advice.

Hello everyone, I was chipping through my bag of shale I brought back from Florissant Fossil Quarry (highly recommend!) and this fossil caught my eye. It's probably from some plant, could you give me an idea of what it is roughly?

I have this fossil here which at first glance I perceived to be some kind of seed, however I’m not sure. These are both from the same individual, just the positive and negative sides. It is just shy of half an inch long. It was found in the North Attleboro section of the Rhode Island formation

I found this nice specimen while hunting for 'white fern' plates out in Centralia, PA. Based off of the size, shape and definition, I'm curious if its a seed of some sort? I left the seed un-prepped with the white silicate mix still present, would love help with an ID

Hi, was on a road trip a few weeks ago for work and stopped at a spot where rocks had been excavated along the road. These rocks where full of partial leaf imprints and stems, alongside Trilobites and bivalves. The first pic is of a few partials I found, second pic has the fossil in question and a stem or leaf of sorts. I am not sure of the age as I'm still trying to piece together how there are leaves with the devonian fossilsI'm guessing that the the rocks are from different layers, the fauna bieng middle to late devonian while the Flora is permian in age. Anyway, will not be getting a chance to go out there anytime soon again. What do you think the spherical fossil could be? Thanks

I recently collected this plate out of a block of shale full of Alethopteris fronds from the spoils of a coal mine in Pennsylvania. You can see some of the Alethopteris on this piece. My initial impression is that these are seeds, with Trigonocarpus serving as the kinda catch-all for Pennsylvanian fern seeds. However, I have never seen an example of Trigonocarpus that has these markings. Both of these fossils have little, golf ball-like dents on them. The fossils measure 4cm and 2.5cm respectively. Has anyone seen something like this before? Do these markings mean that these are something different than Trigonocarpus? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello! and I hope you are having a wonderful afternoon! I found these two plant fossils and was unsure to what they might actually be. They look a lot like modern seeds but I know I am not always informed and I keep having a slight suspicion they could be apart of some other plant material! If anyone could help identify and confirm these plant fossils I would be very grateful! I have found leaves from Neuropteris sp , Cyclopteris sp, and a few other plant species in these types of limestone! Info that I could gather: Location: Missouri Time period: Pennsylvanian Formation: Possibly Upper Winterset Limestone Specimen #1: Two halves of one seed? (roughly 9mm) Other half: Specimen #2: Larger and wider seed? (roughly 3mm) I unfortunately do not have the other half to this one!

These were found east of Burns, Oregon in a road cut. I thought maybe redwood but the structure is vertical not horizontal. Can anyone tell me the name of my little guys? Thanks! Nyla

I found this plant a few months ago in South Yorkshire, UK. It is from the Pennine Middle Coal Measures formation. Preserved on the plant is an unidentified object which I suspect may be a seed. It seems that the positive side of the object is preserved on the half of the rock with the negative part of the plant. Any help to identify the object would be much appreciated. Thanks, Daniel

Does anyone know what this concretion is? It came from Mazon Creek and was listed as a Unusual Rock concretion fossil. I purchased it ten years ago and am hoping others like this have been found since then and a description determination has been made. Help.

Hi to Forum members; I am an amateur rock collector who likes to look for fossils. For the most part I have not found anything fantastic but I am hopeful. I kindly request any information and or comments about a recent flint specimen from my back garden in Ipswich, Tuddenham Road. I have other photos of the flint that show unusual structures. On those photos, I used my photo app to adjust the exposure to get more fine detail. If it will help, I would gladly share. Also from my back garden, I found a petrified seed/pod/nut shell. Can someone help me identify what it is. May thanks! Munchy2

Ok, found this one tonight walking Myrtle Beach. It kind of reminds me of a walnut shell. The center seems to be some kind of seam. I'm including a photo of the opposite side but it's not as great as I hoped. Hard to show detail, but it's concave as if it held something. Ideas? -- Paula
