@will stevenson glad you're enjoying the fossils I sent you! What do you think of the mammoth ivory piece by the way? I think that one was pretty cool, it's definitely one of the best pieces I've found on the Zandmotor :) 

I thought it was wonderful max;) that and the mouse incisor were my favourites and i will post pictures of them all tomorrow, i was just out today:P Thanks so much again for the wonderful parcel

I received my package from @will stevenson a couple of days ago, here it is!

Some nice bivalves, a bunch of bivalve steinkerns, some weird rocks (petrified wood?), a bag of shark teeth, a partial chimera mouth plate, and some Hypolophodon sylvestris ray teeth. Cool stuff! I like the ray teeth best. Unfortunately they are all lacking the location-formation-age info, so Will, could you please send that to me?

Hi so sorry I forget stratiagraphical stuff

Glad you enjoyed it though, I spent quite a few hours searching matrix at home for those teeth^_^ the bivalves with shells are thanetian,Thanet sands fm. Herne bay

the pyritized ones are ypresian London clay fm. Herne bay, the wood is ypresian London clay fm. Thames group herne bay

the black teeth are Ypresian upnor fm. Beltinge fish bed herne bay. The ray teeth are sparnacian oldhaven fm blackheath beds abbey wood hope this solves the issue, normally I find more good condition bivalves but the Thanet sands were ironically under sand, I hope you under...stand ^_^

Some of my favorites from my trade with @Wrangellian. Especially love this eupachydiscus haradai ammonite! It compressed in a really cool wrap around way!

There you go. If anyone is wondering, the 2nd one is a partial Eubostrychoceras elongatum whorl, the 3rd is a disarticulated Uintracrinus socialis, the last I think is a piece of insect-bored wood (I think).

I'm glad you like those ones, but I think some of the bivalves and the Dammarites look better, you should show those too! Some prepping might improve these if you ever have the means.
