That is an awesome trilobite!  What country was that found in?

Not a great picture as it’s a very small tooth but a pretty rare Devonian shark tooth, Wellerodus priscus from Logan Ohio.

Well, well, I will present not a fossil in my collection (I have no Permian fossil:Confused02:), but the Permian petrified forest in Carinthia, Austria. Homepage only in German, unfortunately:

Petrified Forest of Laas (Geopark Karnische Alpen)

Feel free to present also a "real" Permian fossil specimen ;). Or go on with the Triassic ;).

I suppose I could also carry on with the Jurassic. This time from the Late Pliensbachian. A Pleuroceras sp. with pyrite from the site in the Goldbach near Reichenbach/Aalen.

I know from going through this thread that the Paleocene is one that slows the thread a little bit so here’s a Paraorthacodus clarkii from the Aquia Formation.

Guess I may as well toss in one of my better Periarchus pileussinensis sand dollars from the Tivola Limestone of the Late Eocene. 10/10 one of my favorite formations to collect from now.

Every single fossil you see is a miracle set in stone, and should be treated as such.
