This is the last batch of some unidentified fossils that I picked up in an auction - they accompanied a massive whale vertebrae which was the main lot. The other items were teeth (likely Moroccan Cretaceous) and two claws that turned out to be casts. 1 & 2 - two socket bones that I don’t know the physiology of, the larger is about 4” long and 770g 3 - a vertebrae, 750g 4 - a horn-like piece that may or may not be a fossil, the material is such that I can’t see bone or keratin structure 5 - an small, odd-shaped bone fossil 6 - a long vertebrae, very ferrous (3” but 700g), some carbonised material on the outside 7 - a piece of bone, lovely structure 8 - a tail (?) vertebrae, some damage 9 - a light and heavily repaired oddity Looking forward to hearing your thoughts / insights.
