Nothing humble about the fossils in your collection, a lot of museums would love to have such specimens.

Thanks for showing them.

Regards

Mike

Thanks again ... Actually they are the common species , nothing rare here.

However , my personal interest is always leaning towards perfect and unrestored fossils .
