Hello all, Went to Flags Pond yesterday and found a piece of vertebra and possibly a tooth(?) I am having a difficult time identifying. For the vertebra, what species did it come from? For the second item, is it a tooth? If so, what species did it come from? Thanks, Shauna

I am a rock hound who came across this the other day and I am not sure what to think about it. I am almost positive it’s a tooth but not sure from what species. I was only allowed to upload 2 pictures so I chose these 2. Does anyone know what it may be? If it is a tooth the tip has been busted off at some point. Thanks

Hi experts, my daughter is going through a Dinosaur phase so i took her to Kingsbarns beach in fife, Scotland to hunt for fossils. Alas we did not find a an intact tyrannosaurus or a complete fish fossil, however we did pick up a couple of potentially interesting rocks. I would be most grateful if you could advise what they are. The first one (2 photos) we hope might be a tooth and the 2nd possibly a fern root (i did a wee google,). Thanking you in advance for your time and knowledge, the forum is a wonderful resource, thanks for sharing, regards Scott.

A few tips for getting better ID's. First, make the object you are trying to get an ID for be the central object of the photo. Not your hand. Put the object on a neutral colored background and photograph it as close up as possible. Then crop your pictures. Using your hand for scale is no good, we don't know how big your hand is. Make sure the photo is well lit and focused. Second, use a scale rule (preferably metric; millimeters and centimeters) we have members from all over the world. The U.S. is about the only country that does not use the metric system Coins for scale are not good. A member in Belgium probably has no idea how big a U.S. quarter is, and we here have no idea how big a Chinese Yuan is. If you dont have a rule, tell us in the post how big it is. Length, width, height, thickness etc. Third, give as detailed info as possible as to where it was found. State, County, Country, Province, Parish. Was it in a river, a beach find, a quarry? If you know the geologic info, tell us. If not do not guess, if we have the right info on where it was found, that can be obtained. Lastly, don't expect miracles on your items. We are mostly amateurs on here. We can and do make mistakes. If the item is really worn, don't expect an exact Id. But I promise we will do the very best we can, or try to direct you to someone who could possibly ID your item.

Was working among some river rocks in a flower bed in a midland TX and ran across this. Not sure what it is but think it looks toothy. I am not sure on the origin of the rocks in the bed. If it is great but if not it will go into my really cool rocks collection.

I was recently looking through some fossils I found, a number of years ago, along the beach in Charlotte Co. Florida, and found an unidentified one. It is well worn from the surf but stills shows a lot of detail. Other fossils found at that time were: horse, mammoth, bison, deer, shark and a few others. This one I'm not sure of. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Hello new to The Forum I found this fossil a few years back in a lake in Northern Missouri on a rocky area on shore it's a little over an inch long rounded. kind of looks like a tooth but really just do not know what it is. I would love some help with an idea of what it may be. Another photo Photo from the top

Found these on last dive trip to Cooper River Charleston, SC. the left one could be a whale tooth core but seems like ivory as it is layered and is kinda barky. Thanks

I found 2/24/17 this at Englewood Beach Florida (Gulf), while hunting shark teeth, and it looks like a tooth of some kind, but almost looks like it is carved. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Hello! I was hoping someone could help me identify these three items. Any idea what this vertebra is from? 1) 2) I'm pretty sure this is a vertabra as well: 3) Tooth? Thank you very much!

I found this the other day and the distinct shape immediately caught my eye. It was found in the Raton basin at about 7500 feet. I found it on a hillside about 50 feet up from the river. There were many broken leaf fossils around and other interesting patterns that I believe were plant based (wood, roots, etc.) The rock is 4.75" x 3.25". The anomaly is 2.25" from edge of rock to the tip and about 1.5" at it's widest point.

Hey everyone! I found these today on James Island and am having trouble figuring out what they are. I assume they are sharks teeth of some sort, I found them near where I also found almost 100 other teeth! It was a good day. Thanks for any help
