Most of my fossil hunting to this point has been looking for shark teeth, mainly along the Calvert Cliffs or the Potomac. As I am looking, often I see a tooth brought in by a wave, and what looks like could be another tooth being taken back out by the wave. With the next wave, the tooth in front of you could be gone. Now obviously, if you have something special in front of you, that is what you are going for, but what if you aren't sure what is being washed back out? Do you go for the known, or try and grab the unknown before it gets washed away?
Just things I think about while hunting. Was wondering if anyone else did as well. I typically go for the known, but usually second guess myself. Lol
