New to Fossil Forum. Any help would be appreciated. Found these and need an ID. First looks like a vertebrae of some sort. Next one looks like a piece of jaw or mandible with two tooth holes.

The verts may be hard to ID, they are pretty worn. The object you list as a jaw looks more like a rock to me.

Yes the bottom pic is just a small piece but it has a marrow look on the inside. (shown on second picture) I'll try to clean it up a bit and send a better pic.

What kind of verts are perfectly circular and come unattached like that? I found a similar one that is much smaller and is almost flat.

Your second piece looks like a broken scute if some sort.
