Georgemckenzie Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Hiya everyone I Recently bought this starfish fossil (it hasn’t arrived yet) any help with an id would be great I’m assuming it’s from the English coast as the seller selling it was getting rid of a collection of all British fossils. cheers Link to post Share on other sites
dhiggi Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Not sure on species but if it’s real and definitely British then there’s a good chance that it came from Eype on the Dorset coast 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
