Sarabear19 0 Report post Posted December 21, 2012 Hello My husband brought this fossil back from South Africa. I'm not sure what kind of egg it is, or what would it's value be. It is approx 12 cm long and 7.5 cm wide. Your comments/thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Missourian 569 Report post Posted December 21, 2012 It was cut and polished from a septarian concretion. Very pretty. http://www.google.com/search?q=septarian+concretion&sourceid=ie7&rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&ie=&oe=&rlz=1I7AURU_enUS498 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
