mikeymig Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 In a collection I recently acquired, some of the fossils in the collection had no ID with them. This fossil looks real familiar to me but I cant remember where or when I saw it. 27mm or a little over an inch long. Any help is appreciated. Many times I've wondered how much there is to know. led zeppelin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IsaacTheFossilMan Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 (edited) I'm seeing acorn minus the cap! Edit: now I'm seeing more of a hazelnut... Do you know the age or any more information?

DPS Ammonite Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Take a picture looking down on the pointy end. Does it have three prominent ridges like Trigonocarpus? Does it exhibit bilateral symmetry? My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned. See my Arizona Paleontology Guide link The best single resource for Arizona paleontology anywhere.

Plax Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 There's an eocene nut found in Maryland and virginia that shows up in collections occasionally. You can google as I don't recall the specifics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
