This one is very nice, I bet it looks pretty good in the display case.  :dinothumb:

Larger pieces like this I keep in my backyard, underneath the raspberry bush :(   I don't seem to find the time or place to properly display them in the house.  There are a few really nice coral fossils in the pile there, I'll get to them one day.

What a cool thread! My mind instantly sprang to my Red Hill fish (Devonian, Catskill (Pennsylvania), most notably my Hyneria and Groendlandaspis plates. Here's my bluest:

In this topic I have to show one of my Nothosaurus teeth from the Schwäbisch Hall region (Rüblingen, Germany). They come from the so-called Blaubank (blue bank, upper Keuper). The tooth is nicely light and the matrix dark blue, this contrast is very nice in my humble opinion and not common. Not easy to get the blue color nice on the photos.Not easy to get the blue colors nicely in the picture. But you get the idea.

My favorite things about fossil hunting: getting out of my own head, getting into nature and, if I’m lucky, finding some cool souvenirs.

I found this horse tooth yesterday on a SE Texas River gravel bank. It has some nice Blue, green, and orange colors.

By no means spectacular blue, but I think there's a blue tint to the top of this (unerupted?) equus tooth I found.

I possess only a modest quantity of blue fossils, but when captured with a flash or in low light, their enchanting blue hues are accentuated.

Just stumbled across this thread -- how about a blue Aduncus or possibly a Mako.

@Meganeura  Serrations on the Aduncus serration ? To have @Brandy Cole reference this post is happenstance.

Hmm they don’t seem to be complex - just finely serrated. I don’t think Aduncus has complex serrations.

Found another nice blue fossil.  I am going to try and remove the matrix around it somehow and see if I can only be left with the fossil.

Not my fossil (photo from the book "Fossils of Morocco" of Patrice Lebrun),

not even a blue fossil.

But a fossil on Azurite.
