Upper ordovician, Italy. Decalcified specimen (it means that you see the mould). Scale bar 5mm. These are 3 different specimens, but I guess of the same species. At first thought they seem a blastoid oral area (never reported blastoids from this formation). But, as 2 of 3 of these specimens are inscribed in a circle, I was thinking about a particular echinoderm stem mould.

I mentioned this here and have had it a long time. Tube with green target lens no markings. Possibly a surveyors instrument part. Green target that rotates. I coupled it to my phone and then did a grey scale image. Any ideas on maker or use?

Hello there everyone! I found this site while looking for resources to ID what my wife suspects is a fossil. We acquired it cleaning out a house that was bought 'as-is' by a relative. - it was on a brick fireplace with some other interesting rocks including a huge piece of obsidian. She swears it looks like a dinosaur egg. I don't see it but agreed to look into it. It's about 10 inches long by 5 inches thick at the thickest point and shaped kinda like a football. Thanks very much for your time and expertise.

Hello, I'm new here and this is my first post. I found the fossil at work today laying in the gravel. I'm not sure if it came in on a dump truck load of gravel or was unearthed 4 years ago during the construction of the impoundment ponds. Regardless it was found in northeastern Oklahoma approximately 45 miles directly south of Tulsa. The only thing I can tell you about it other than what the pictures show is the smell. It had the smell of oil shale after I rinsed the dirt from it. I tried to meet the requirements for photos but I have no ruler that measures in MM nor do I have a printer to print the printable one mentioned in another post. I did however have a Tritan digital caliper that I took measurements with and a laboratory balance that it was weighed with. All measurements are taken at the longest, widest and thickest points. Length: 63.38mm Width:. 27.74mm Thickness: 17.52mm Weight:. 46.3571g

A Mazon Creek nodule popped open a few days ago. At first I thought it was nothing. But in the right light, I have hope (hopefully not false hope) that this may indeed be a find. If this were my Ordovician matrix, I could envision a trilobite. Maybe it mimics a horseshoe crab!!!! During my hunt, I did get to see a horseshoe crab found by @flipper559 I will cross my fingers waiting for the experts to respond.

I found this on the coast near Savannah. I don’t think it is a fossil, I just can’t figure out what part of the animal it comes from. Is this a part of a spine? A tail? It did get a bit crushed in a quick beach exit due to a lightning storm - but it survived vs the shells I had collected… I appreciate any insight.

Yesterday found me exploring multiple Galena/Ordovician road cuts in northern Iowa. Finds for the most part were good but just the common fossils found in this rock formation. However, one rock I examined contained a positive and negative relief of something I do not recognize. Hopefully someone can put an ID to these pictures!!!!!! Positive front Positive back Positive from the side negative imprint Both positive and negative together

Hello all. I have a few fossils/rocks I bought from local stores/shows a few years ago. Sadly the labels to them were mostly all lost somewhere along the way, so I have no idea what they are or where they came from. With no information I don't expect to find out exactly what they are but I'm hoping to at least get a general idea. Attached are the images to the most confusing one, which was bought by my mother, so I don't have any recollection of what it could be (ruler is in inches). Thanks in advance for all your help.
