snolly50 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Here's one: fish_gar_full_jaw.JPG The excellent photography and handsome graphic presentation of the relevant info make your post a pleasure to view.

Harry Pristis Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Very nice Harry The excellent photography and handsome graphic presentation of the relevant info make your post a pleasure to view. Thank you for the feedback. I do enjoy photographing the fossils . . . it gives me new appreciation of the bones and teeth. http://pristis.wix.com/the-demijohn-page What seest thou else In the dark backward and abysm of time? ---Shakespeare, The Tempest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcbshark Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Man, those are all some great examples you folks have posted! Teeth in the jaw are one of my absolute favorite things to find, they're fairly rare ( at least to me lol) and it took me a good bit of hunting till I found my first example which is the Peccary piece. I did find a couple decent ones this season including the 2 sections of deer mandiblebest piece so far with 3 perfect teeth as found2 pieces of deer mandible and a piece of maxillaand here is my Peccary piece with 2 teeth and what I think may be an opossum or coon jaw with 1 tooth Every once in a great while it's not just a big rock down there!

Cam28 Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Very nice pieces here. Mine may not be as admirable, but still very good and proud additions in my book First one I ever found, unknown fish dentary (Peace river) Partial small mammal mandible (skunk?), near where I found the first one but a different trip Raccoon mandible with 2 premolars(?), bought from the Tampa Fossil Fest earlier this year. Funny thing is it's still listed for sale online, under Paleoenterprise's "everything else" section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Pristis Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 It's always great to find a jaw with teeth. Here's a little horse jaw . . . note the tiny canines: http://pristis.wix.com/the-demijohn-page What seest thou else In the dark backward and abysm of time? ---Shakespeare, The Tempest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Andy- Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Troodon, your collection of dino jaws is the best I've seen in any private collection. Kudos to you man. cf. Borealosuchus sternbergii from Hell Creek formation Tethysaurus nopscai from Asflain, Goulmima Prognathodon giganteus from Oued Zem, Morocco Eryops megacephalus from Jefferson county, Oklahoma Looking forward to meeting my fellow Singaporean collectors! Do PM me if you are a Singaporean, or an overseas fossil-collector coming here for a holiday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Thanks Andy. Your Jaws are nice, I especially like your crock jaw from the Hell Creek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DylanS Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 That croc jaw is fantastic Andy. I'm headed up to Montana for 7 glorious days in the Hell Creek Formation later this month and I am beyond excited! Hope to find something like that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sseth Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Here is my favorite upper-skull from Platecarpus ptychodon. It prepped out of the matrix so well I decided to leave is just as it was with no restoration or repairs. If you look close you can even see the pterygoid teeth still in place. Not my showiest piece but one of my favorites. _____________________________________ Seth www.fossilshack.com www.americanfossil.com www.fishdig.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpevahouse Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) Juvenile oreodont jaw, Oligocene Era, White River Formation, Badlands of South Dakota. Very complete one side of oreodont mandible, very thin and delicate, an especially good example about 4 inches in length.
