Nimravis Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 There are a number of fossils in my collection that I would have no problem parting with, but this little gem that I bought in Scenic, South Dakota (White River Badlands- Oligocene) about 20 years ago for $3.00, has always been very special to me and I would never sell or trade it. This was identified as the frontal lower jaw portion of a juvenile Hyracodon Rhino with 2 erupting canines. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brittle Star Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 My favourite has to be my new species find of Jurassic brittle star, Enakomusium whymanae, in situ photo of two together with matrix found in and one taken by the museum (x 55) of one of the arms I found after sieving the leftover matrix, I love the detail and preservation. An individual specimen would be no bigger than 5mm across. 1 Never ask a starfish for directions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baryonyx Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 my favourite Fossils. The first one is a Carcharodontosaurus tooth. The ruler is in centimeters. The second one is a Triceratops Phalang. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max-fossils Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 For me, choosing ONE favorite would be really difficult too. But these two I sure love: Partial lobster (missing head and tail) from Lyme Regis, UK. From the Early Jurassic. The first significant fossil I found, as a 9-year old kid, and likely the one that really brought me into the paleontology world. Then this is my best find up to date, and definitely holds a dear place in my heart. A woolly rhino molar Coelodonta antiquatis, found on the Zandmotor, Netherlands. From the late Pleistocene (40'000 years old). Then again there are so many other fossils in my collection that I simply couldn't live without, because every one has a different memory or story associated with it. 3 Max Derème "I feel an echo of the lightning each time I find a fossil.

Missourian Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 It looks like these images have been subjected to 'diagenesis' that has rendered them unidentifiable.
