I found this in a Benton county crumbly fossil rich road cut that I'm fairly sure is Oligocene based upon the other fossils present. Other fossils are all aquatic and includes a lot of clams (Pitar) and a few snails (Siphonalia, Neverita) The fossil in question appears to have been a hollow tube that's been broken open, but I'm unsure if that's actually the case or if the end is simply folded in a way to give that illusion. I initially called it a bone in my excitement, but now I could see it as being plant matter of some kind. This is kind of a shot in the dark, as I'm unsure if it could even be identified based on such a vague fossil. Edit: It's about 2 inches or 5-6 centimeters

Possible fossils? Lakes Entrance, Victoria, south eastern Australia
Annabackwards posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hello, These two items were found on the beach near Lakes Entrance in Victoria, Australia. There's a good chance they may just be rocks, but members of a rock identification forum wondered if they might be fossils, so I thought I'd ask the experts! No 1 has an unusual shape and no 2 has rows of little holes a fairly consistent distance apart. Is anyone able to tell me one way or the other if they are rocks or fossils? Any help is gratefully received. Thanks very much! Anna -
Bought this online with a bunch of other fossils for my kids. No idea what we're looking at. Any and all help appreciated!

I was looking through my beach finds and I have a small, curious piece. Can anyone ID it for me? Not sure if it's a fossil or an imprint of something.

Need help identifying a group of spherical fossils | Solved : Iron Concretion
Alexander D.G posted a topic in Fossil ID
I found this one at the Jurassic Coast along side some other fossils. The fossil is about 2.5 cm wide and is heavier than it looks (tried a magnet but it had no effect on it). The second picture is a close up of a crack at the side (top right on the first picture), from what i could make out it looked like pyrite which is most likely becuase i also found a pyritised ammonite on the same beach. Any help would be greatly appreciated!- 9 replies

Hi, We pulled this from Big Brook today. No idea what it is and could use the expertise of this community to help ID. Thanks!

not sure where it was found. I 've had it for decades. Before I knew about fossils, I thought it belonged to a cow

Hi all, my sons and I are new members and just getting into fossil hunting, we hope to become regulars on the forum with our (hopefully) interesting finds! This is a photo of a find from Saltwick Bay, Whitby, North Yorkshire, it was already on display like this and we have absolutely no idea what it is (if anything). If anyone can shed any light, that would be great! Rob, Oscar and Elliot

The first two I have no idea about where they come from but the third I found in gravel from a creek bed in southeast Nebraska (probably glacial till) and I believe is a pygidum topotype, but could be wrong, the last I found in a shale gravel pit near Mohawk NY in Herkamer county (I'm not familiar with the area's geology maybe someone from that area can help?) Thanks in advance!

My brother found this in a creek and the porous texture and divot on one end would seem to point towards a vertebrae of some kind, but I've never found anything like it before. Anyone know what it is/how I could tell for sure if it is a vertebra, or just some kind of coral or cephalopod...

This is a fossil of mine, Can anyone with knowledge tell me what it is and what it's worth? Best guess is fine. Thank you

Me and my girlfriend were taking a stroll through the river Thames in London and managed to come across these guys...we are not fossil experts (or beginners) and were just wondering what they could be. If you guys can help us out, that'd be great! Object A is 8 cm across with a maximum width of 4 cm.
