Show a few fossils, that are from the same state. Can we show all 50 States?

I'll start it off, with South Carolina.

As a bonus; the day after I started this thread, I received some new specimens, and could have shown a representation of North Carolina fossils too.  So just as a bonus:

Does posting only a fossil count? Because I've got a really nice Elrathia kingii from Utah, but...that's it for this state :')
Otherwise I've got 2 specimens from Wyoming, but I'm still prepping one of them (and, unfortunately, damaged it a bit: it's the first fossil I've ever prepared )
