busyeagle Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Made a quick trip out to the paleocene of Maryland yesterday morning. HIghlights were some busted up ray plates and a paraorthacodus missing a couple of cusps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fossilcrazy Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 If you are going to labor on Labor Day, it should be a labor of love.........like fossil collecting! Good job with good rewards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcoSr Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Nice specimens. Paraorthacodus from Maryland rarely have all the cusps. Your tooth is a very nice find. It is always a worthwhile trip if you find one. Marco Sr. "Any day that you can fossil hunt is a great day."

Good job with good rewards. Thanks fossilcrazy, I agree wholeheartedly with that sentiment. Although I can't say that my stroll on the beach was much in the way of labor in comparison with tedious hours of coal splitting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was really hoping to find the rest of that bigger broken ray plate, but no such luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cck Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Did you see me on the other side of the river? I was the guy bent over. Great finds. Mine were similar-just replace your special tooth with an indian point and some croc teeth. Not trying to hi-jack the post, just found it neat that we were finding the same stuff on the same day in the same formation. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
