fossilcrazy Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 OK. Maybe the last post wasn't my best. This Devonian Onychodus sigmoides fish tooth is much rarer. From Jamesville Quarry, NY. Hamilton Grp. Onondoga Fm. Union Springs layer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The formation exposed at Red Hill is the Duncannon member of the Catskill Formation, Famennian stage of the Devonian. What is the Oxbow Lake member?

PA Fossil Finder Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Oh yeah, and my best fossil tooth so far would probably be my fish tooth from Red Hill, PA. It's only 2 cm long, but it's so cool Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridgehiker Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Onychodus parasymphysial tooth found 10-19-02.jpg OK. Maybe the last post wasn't my best. This Devonian Onychodus sigmoides fish tooth is much rarer. From Jamesville Quarry, NY. Hamilton Grp. Onondoga Fm. Union Springs layer. Those unique paleozoic teeth are my favourite. I get as much thrill finding Carboniferous/Devonian shark teeth in matrix in our mountain as I do Dino teeth in the badlands. Sometimes it may be the only specimen in the world from an unknown species. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZiggieCie Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Looking for Mississippian age marine fossils in a road construction area, these Bison teeth just jumped out and bit me, and 4 months apart but only 100 ft from each other. (If these are not Bison, please let me know.) This upper class suburb south of Cleveland is not a place I would expect to find Bison teeth laying around. The area is just below a cliff that Indians could of ran them off of as they were known to do out west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PRK Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 As I am a big fan of SELF COLLECTED fossils, I surely would like to see more of them in this post ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otodusobliquus Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 My favorite tooth is the Carcharodon hastalis (formerly Isurus) in the center of the second picture, but my best is probably the Isurus retroflexus in the first picture. It's the biggest of that species I know of at 2.25 inches slant height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike from North Queensland Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 This is my best personal find as far as teeth go, a shed Kronosaurus queenslandicus tooth. These tend to be fairly rare as they were top of the food chain in the ocean at that time and most skull specimens when found tend to have only the tooth socket preserved.

fossilized6s Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 It's a tie between my almost perfect Meg, Panther canine or my largest Mammoth tooth.

Al Dente Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 (edited) Here is a favorite shark tooth. From Lee Creek this tooth is over 6 inches long and 5 inches wide. I have several megs in better condition but this one is by far the largest. I can't show a large tooth without showing a favorite small shark tooth. Here is an unknown Triakid from the Eocene Castle Hayne Formation. It is less than 2 mm. wide. Edited August 12, 2015 by Al Dente Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digit Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Wondrous teeth Al Dente. Great coverage of both ends of the size spectrum. That meg is a real lunker! I have a variety of teeth in my small collection--I can still remember finding nearly every interesting one and I enjoy them all for the memories they rekindle. My "favorite" tooth is usually the NEXT one that I find but I do have one special tooth that you all may remember from back in May. Thanks again to John (Sacha) for making that collecting trip possible (and highly memorable). Cheers. -Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
