Drum plate

Edit: I've re-uploaded photos since Don made me aware that they were not showing up. I am able to view the photos from my laptop (a chrome book) and my cell (google pixel). Hopefully re-uploading will have resolved the problem.

 

Hi all,

 

Took a trip to NJ searching a cretaceous stream recently. Have to give a shout out and "thank you" to my new friend Tyler, whom upon stumbling upon me bumbling about in the stream, showed me the "good spot" where I can find better finds. Together, we found plenty of goblin teeth, crow teeth, shrimp parts, and myself, some nice pycnodont (Anomaeodus phaseolus) crushers. I'm sharing my best find of the day, a partial pycnodont plate.  Also sharing some weird looking mineral I found just in case anyone has any input.

For some reason your first set of photos isn't showing.  All I see are broken links.

Okay thank you, the photos show up on my laptop, but I saw your comment on my phone and see what you mean. I'll see if I can fix them
