I was at Penn Dixie a few weeks ago and had trouble figuring out what a couple of my finds could be.

My first thought for this one was a piece of a trilobite, but I’m not 100% sure on that.

I don’t know where to start with this one. 


Any help is greatly appreciated!

The second item looks like a piece of orthocone cephalopod, ... maybe Michelinoceras sp.

@Fossildude19 I was wondering if it was a cephalopod piece but didn’t know if cephalopods if that size were found in Penn Dixie. 

 

 

They are found there in that size.  LINK
