Hey guys we found a box of whole body fossils in a box in my dads room after he had passed away. Could you guys be so kind and help me identify these guys and what would be recommended ways to help preserve them.

Welcome to the Forum. We are going to need better focused photos especially of the items in the first photo. It is best not to put more than one or two of them in each photo.

 

Possibly some pyrite clusters in two of the rocks; better photos will help.

 

The ammonite in the second photo looks sort of like a Metoicoceras ammonite from the Cretaceous Eagle Ford Group, (Arcadia Park Formation of north Texas), by preservation style and form.

My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned.
