Hi everyone! I have my eye on a really nice Megalodon. The problem is the seller, who by his own admission is pretty inexperienced with fossils, has no idea if it has any restoration. Now, I could figure it out myself with my UV and some acetone, but the seller doesn't offer returns so I'm conflicted (normally I'd move on but I have a feeling about this one). Figured I'd see if anyone here could spot any funny business. My main concern is a slightly darker area in the upper left root lobe on the lingual side and center of the root on the labial side. Though if it is restored I find

The fossil hunters have been out in droves since Hurricane Ian left South Carolina, so I figured I better get out there yesterday. Some creeks were still too high to hunt, so I went to one that has never given me a 100% complete large tooth, but I enjoy the spot and it is typically empty. It definitely was not empty yesterday. I passed a few people leaving when I arrived and passed 8 others as I walked through the creek. Not a good sign. But, all of the others were sifting, which I don't usually do anyway, so I took to checking the high bank for washout. I still didn

Howdy everyone! I found this on a beach in South Carolina and obviously I have no idea what this little guy is, but it looks like a miniature pelvis haha! If anyone has an idea as to what this is, I'd love to get an expert's opinion! Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello there! I found this on a beach in South Carolina and was questioning how closely it resembled a human tooth? That or maybe a manatee? I could use a hand it figuring out what creature this tooth came from. Thanks in advance for any and all information!

Hello everyone! Got this interesting find from Myrtle Beach that I could use some expert opinions identifying. Any and all help is greatly appreciated and thanks in advance! I think it might be a small fractured crab claw.

Found this cool complete little bone while screening some gravel in a Summerville creek. Seems familiar but not enough to hazard a guess. Thanks for looking! -

My last few trips haven't been particularly exciting, and I am seeing more of my spots lost to construction or getting closed off. I did find what originally looked like part of a shark tooth until I got home and saw the barbs. But, it doesn't look like the typical ray barb that I find or see on the forum/online. It has enamel and the individual barbs don't go all the way to the tip. Also, the barbs point the opposite direction from a typical ray barb. Any ideas what it is from?

These were all found on Myrtle Beach over the last few months and I was just wondering what they were (obviously). They look like fragments of turtle shell but I'm not completely sure. I realize I should've used a lighter more even-colored lighting/background, but I hope these pictures will suffice. Thanks for any input. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Hello All, I am new here and trying to identify the species of this tooth that I found in Folly Beach, South Carolina. Does anyone know what species it may be, and would you mind sharing how you came to your conclusion? Thanks! Sarah

I recently purchased this "tusk" from someone else who said he found it on a fossil hunt in South Carolina. He called it a tusk, but didn't know from what type of creature. I don't believe it's a walrus tusk, and I'm not sure it's even a tusk. Maybe a bone or a tooth? I really have no idea. Thus, I'd appreciate anyone who may have seen something like this before. I've also attached a few photos of other "fragments of a tusk" that came with it. Are all of these the same things? Any idea what they are, and what they are from? Thanks.

I seem to still be very unsure on determining the presence of a bourlette on very worn teeth (since I think this is my third tooth and post with a similar issue). I think maybe I just don't want to mistakenly call something a meg, if it isn't. Would you say this tooth has a bourlette, albeit a very worn one? Thanks for the help!

Found several shark verts and a bony fish vert yesterday along with these two big verts. I haven't found verts this size before, and haven't been able to identify them. If anyone can help, it would be appreciated. Vert 1: Vert 2:

Hello there! I made my way down to Myrtle beach SC and found a few interesting bits that I would love some help identifying. Thank you for any information in advance! First off we have this scale-like piece (actually no idea what this could be, I've never seen anything like it before): Then we have what I think might be a shard of some kind of mineralized shell fragment? This seems similar to some fossilized turtle shells I've found in the past. Lastly, what might be (really guessing here) a part of a sea robin skull? Please take that with a grain of

Hello everyone! I'm just reposting this single 'fossil'(?) as it was grouped into a different topic where it remained identified. Any help with information would be greatly appreciated! (Thanks again for those who have already posted on that original topic)

Hello everyone, A couple years ago I decided to try fossil hunting for the first time at Myrtle Beach, SC after learning about it from a fossil hunter I met while there. I found some interesting things during the week there, mostly in tide pools that formed later in the day, around 5-6 pm I think. There are a few I could tell were fossils, but the rest I am not sure about so I wanted to see if anyone could help give me an idea of what I might've found. There is a fossil dig site in my state not too far from where I live, so I might take them there as well for identification if they allow
